I agree in a sense, but isn't it kinda hard for the bowfisherman to do a "live release"?

Very true, in that case..perhaps just don't shoot the bow. wink Plenty of other fish to shoot, they saw several smaller ones (male) swimming with her that would have been just as tasty. Btw... Gar is good eaten. Boneless fillets, etc.
