Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Ethical consideration

My response would be:

"Because I'm a saddist. I enjoy ripping the lips out fish. They'll tell their brother and sister fish, which will cause them no end of worry, become despondent and welcome an early death. I would waterboard them but that wouldn't work."

Let's say you are out fishing one day and someone walking by stops and asks you "Why do you have to torment the fish and then just let them go like that?" 

I have a very detailed answer for this kind of question, but I thought I'd post it since it is something you may be asked out there, especially if you fish in populated areas. 

And yes, a buddy was asked this exact question a couple of years ago by a jogger while fishing on the C & O canal.

BTW -- Another reminder to get your 2016 fishing licenses.  That's the most important ethical concern there is in my opinion.  If you do it now, they'll all expire at an easy-to-remember time each year ;).
