If you are killing 25 to 50 percent of the released fish you catch. You are doing it completly wrong. To light of gear and fighting the fish way to long. Keeping the fish out of the water to take a glory picture. Plus barbless hooks make for a easy release I never touch the fish . It has been years since I have mortaly injured a realeased fish. Catch and release works its a fact, but you as a fisherman have to do your part.
