That's great , in my opinion you should leave wild fish to those who appreciate watching them swim away to be caught again.
I am not against fish pics but this fixation that some have with "fish porn" ( and I hate that term) is getting old. What I have never been able to figure out is this obsession some have with having to "prove" they caught a fish. Are your skills so weak that your friends actually can't believe you caught a fish ? Lol ! It's probably the same folks who find it necessary to include their fish count. Like anyone cares you caught 16 walleye, 12 rainbows and 5 browns in 2014! ridiculous!!!
On a side note, I've fished with some well known fly fishermen who often put fish under WAY too much stress just to get the perfect pic. Often they end up belly up or very stressed, they claim to feel bad about it and then just do it again. Wtf? If your "fish count" is anywhere close to the number of pics on your iPhone please do the fish a favor and stop now. The only one who is impressed is you.
