To each his own. When ever possible I never take the fish out of the water. Just reach down and release the hook. Barbless is a big help in this area. Have you watch some of these fly fishing shows where they hold the fish out of the water for some time admiring their catch and saying over & over again "what a pretty fish". Never heard anyone say ye gads "What an ugly fish" lol[/size][/#008000][/font]
