The video IS pretty hilarious... I'm not directing any bad vibes towards you man.

And yes, I think the fish won in the end.

For me, the clip reminded me of times past when I've seen fish killed for the wrong reasons. In particular, I recall an incident at a local pond I fished when I was 12 back East. During one August, there was a bluegill and pumpkin-seed sunfish population explosion, and they were being hooked on every cast. There were some Bass fisherman that thought they were a nuisance, and decided to step on and throw them into the bushes. I arrived the next day and saw and smelled the stink, and thought "what a waste"...

The image haunts me even now when I see people kill fish that they don't even intend to use. Definitely not kosher with the Great Spirit... and economically, such a waste.

I practice CNR 80% of time now, and used barbless hooks. I've seen Karma in action way too many times...
