Re: Unhooking Mats & Handling of Fish

Hornet you say long wet grass is fine ? So what happens when the grass is dry ? How do you know what lies hidden in the grass ? Sharp stones , broken glass , Twigs etc etc .

I offer you guys this challenge ? Next time you have a bath or shower go and have a roll in the grass while you are still wet and see how it feels . Surely as anglers we have a duty of care to the fish we catch .

Just to repeat my self what I said earlier . I am not Jeff Collins . What ever has gone on between you to in the past I would suggest you take it up with him . I have never been a member of BFW and I have never been banned from any group or website and I have never stalked any one .

Re: Unhooking Mats & Handling of Fish

I am curious to know onelastcast ? You say and I quote '' Better still just unhook in a the net and release , Prolonging a fish's time out of water with a weigh sling mat and a small film production crew does more harm ? I assume it is you in the You tube video ? How big was the film production crew when you filmed your self catching and posing with your Barbel at the end of the film ?
Also how many double figure Barbel have you caught over the years and have taken photos of ?
Perhaps you should practice what you preach ?

Re: Unhooking Mats & Handling of Fish

Ollie I assume when you say some fisheries have banned unhooking mates ? I assume you are talking about Carp puddles ? I fish many different rivers and never come across a ban on rivers . I fish for Barbel and all ways use a mat when unhooking a fish .
