I flipped my bail and the fish stopped fighting and I walked over to it and it started to fight again and I successfully landed it.
always respect the fish.
I can't clean fish in front of my fish tank. My Beta goes into shock and won't speak to me for weeks.
I've caught the same shark 4 times in an hour if that says anything.
So what are you saying, sharks like pain?
I treat fish, like all animals and humans, with respect (gently handling, release those I'm not eating, etc)...Whether they feel pain or not, I don't care.
