I was watching one of the fishing programmes on sky recently and these guys were fly fishing for carp (in the states I think). They landed some beautiful common carp and then proceeded to weigh them by clamping a set of scales to the top lip!!
I was cringing! It was worse than finger nails down a blackboard!
They were exclaiming how beautiful the fish were, over 20lbs, and then treating them as if they were dead.
However, on another programme they stressed that if at all possible you should try not to take a fish out of the water as it can cause serious internal damage to vertebrae, organs etc.
I can understand a general fisheran being ignorant of these details but these men are professionals (Supposedly).
This is the sort of thing that the Anti brigade lap up. Though I dont suppose that they would ever consider banning fishing abroad.
