gotta say it scotty ,

not wishing to upset anyone too much ,im sure you are all good fellas etc and had a good time out but that short bit of video did not excite me at all

to be honest it was disappointing to watch , good fish [pinkies ] being continually caught and handled very poorly , then thrown back like that on a charter operation in this day and age …

yes pinkies are pretty hardy , but honestly imo that sort of practice is not good , people watch that and think its all good , when really its poor practice and its a bad look for rec fishers

I know others will disagree ,but recs need to be doing all we can to give our pastime a good rapp , the charter may give punters a short education session before they start fishing etc , maybe it was a one off hot session blah blah blah , but it portrays a bad image that it is normal and acceptable ,imo that's not a good thing .

if your not keeping them , then either stop fishing or handle them better before release

fire away ...hezzy

Video Removed?

 Tried to watch it and got a video removed notice.

Did you take it down Scottland?

Was that because of Hezzy's opinion and comments? I respect that he has that opinion and has every right to voice it although Hezzy does not speak for all the fisho's out here and i would have liked to make up my own mind.
