Makes me laugh how they all seem to try to "cut them free"
But then had to take it to the fish market

...d'ya reckon a commercial guy would cut through his nets (costing him money) or take the fish to market (making him money) ???????

I see this fish was taken just two miles off my favourite beach!!!! Maybe I should be using wire traces and whole tuna for bait - jeesus, how the hell am I gonna carry the rubby dubby sack along the shingle??????

Hes going to keep it.
I just find it funny that they mention releasing it

Still wondering what sort of fight I would have had with that Basking Shark I saw a while back if i'd foul hooked it with my Mackie feathers. Could have been fun while it lasted....
