People are ignorant! Just because you didnt want to keep the fish you feel the need to kill it?
Thats no respect for our resources. I seen guys catch skipjacks below old hickory dam and just throw them up on the bank to die! They whine "oh them thing stink up your hands" or "theres too many in the river"
Well duh jack a$$.....its a bait fish!!!! They school by the thousands! Thats kinda what they do!
Certainly not as glamourous as trout but they shouldnt get treated like a trash fish....no fish should.
Sorry.....skippies have a soft spot in my heart!
