when I do go fishing for salmon I'm going for food. .... when the fish are thick and lockjawed and that bump I feel turns out to be something other than their mouth, I'm not against keeping the fish .... and it means feeding my children.



eek Sad to hear of your financial plight, distaste for salmon, and lack of fishing ethics Dave. Seems you are out to make fish distasteful to your children as your father did to you. And in an illegal manner; using the needy food on the table bullsh!t excuse. How much have you spent on fishing rods, reels, tackle, bait, license, gas, etc., etc. to go keep snagged fish to eat?!? Those heavy expenses could put a lot of food and more eating variety on your table dude. rolleyes
