- Obviously my wording gave the impression that I would kill just for the photo. Actually, I have never done that, and never will. But of course when I take a fish that is worth showing to others, I have a picture taken.
The thing is, we dont hunt fish just to bring it to our family for dinner. We do it for the challenge of the chase and the thrill of the capture. And when we take one that is big enough or notable for any other reason, we feel proud about it and want to show it to others. I dont see anything wrong with that.
