I never donate mine! Beautiful fish. He'll replay that catch many times before he falls asleep I'm sure.

Awesome bugged eyed fatty!! I would love to catch one and enroll it in the Share Lunker program, but thats me. I totally support an angler if he wants to let it go. He caught it and he should choose where it goes. Fish of a lifetime!!

Nice Fish!!

I started to post a response to those that feel the need to call this guy out on his fish handling................ It's not even worth the effort.

Because the best chance of survival and reproduction,for the fish,is to immediately release the fish.

I believe what Transplant is trying to point out is that "experts" say that it is best to hold the fish differently. I don't think he was criticizing this lucky fella, but passing along some information to those who maybe haven't heard that many "experts" support holding the fish in two places. It would sure be a shame to go through the exercise of releasing her to increase her chance of survival.....passing up on sharelunker fame.....but inadvertently killing her with a camera.
