Thus the fish must get tired,and face a chance of dying.is it more ethical to use heavier tackle with fewer chances of harming the trophy or if done properly can a concious angler use lighter tackle. Im looking for more challenge in my angling the landing isnt as important to me as the battle itself but the most important thing to me is the welfare of the fish This question has been haunting me a while thank you for your imput , brad robinson __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
