Proper handling of fish to be released

[packfish]

TD: Just out of mild mannered curiosity why would you post the picture of the carp? Why would you give the other side the ammunition to bolster their position that we are all barbarians. Now if you wanted to show me this picture while we were out fishing or at home no big deal but to post it on the web is fairly foolish. I'm not a left wing liberal by no means but I have the intelligence to know what makes us all look bad. This is what gives all outdoors man a black eye. I'm not saying killing the carp was a bad decision but posting it the way you did was.
