You can't eat that one, so no.

Do you cum on them first?

>You can't eat that one

Why not?

It's unnecessarily cruel yes
I don't mind if you fish and eat them or it's your job, but hobby fishing is a little sadistic desu

You gave it too much attention and formed an emotional bond with it.

>Can't eat a sun fish
Since when?

Nah fishing is comfy

I caught a giant pregnant striper and threw it back in. Was that unnecessarily cruel?

Where the fuck are the mods?

Slide threads everywhere since the Brexit petition conspiracy surfaced.

Reported

don't know what state that user is from
but here in indiana we have a law saying a fish has to be a specific size .
maby thats what he ment

If the fish is underdeveloped and you want to eat an adult one it´s ok
If you are training to fish a marlin then it´s ok

Same here in Maryland. I had to throw back a northern pike I caught because it was only 35 inches and not 36.

Yes you can eat bluegill you retard.

That's retarded.

Yep

BASSLIVESMATTER!

Because it's a half-pound bluegill. Not enough meat.

You don't want to eat pike near the city, they have bpa,lead,and mercury.

That's a slab, that has a lot of meat for pan fish standards.

>Not enough meat

thats a sandwich worth of fish at least

Unless it's a private lake.

Sometimes I wonder the same thing when I go fishing. I don't eat them and throw them back, it's pretty cruel but all of seafood is since it's either frozen alive or cooked alive. I always laugh at pescetarian girls that say it's because they like animals, but they do always have insane bodies.

>ITT people who have never gone fishin'

If it's too small, I release it back so maybe it can grow

Otherwise, if it gets hooked so bad it would die if placed back I keep it regardless of size because it'd be a waste otherwise.

I like to throw meats and cheese and stuff into the ponds and creeks around where I live just to fatten those fuckers up.

I remember this glorious little spot that emerged after a rainstorm, completely isolated from the main river, that my buddy and me found. We would bring lunch meat and cheeses and shit and pour it in there every few days.

We came back one day and noticed every fucking fish in there was huge.
Had a nice haul on that trip.
