Hay guys
So we have all seen spearo's posing with the giant fish that they have caught. and those of us who have a similar picture ourselfs are surely proud of it. me included.
I mostly hunt reef and have no experience with blue water fish at the moment, but from my persepective if you are realy hunting for a nice fish to eat then the biggest fish around is the one you would be avoiding. bigger fish have more toxins, murcury, and the meat is tougher.
I think all hunters have what i call a Jack London side to them, even if we only admit it to ourself there is somthing exhilirating about the hunt and kill. and the bigger the fish the more excited our inner cave man gets. hence the big fish.
I was just wondering what other people thoughts were on this or if there is any other reason to go for the biggest fish around than our "primal instinct".
