If you live in Calgary or Edmonton or anywhere else in a big city there really just isn't much point in spending all that money just for a tasty meal that could be easily bought from Safeway. THAT BEING SAID i totally understand the urge to eat what you've overpowered, it's just natural, but every time you go fishing? make it a treat and keep one for the night and leave the rest to breed and make more fish for your kids to catch and their kids.

And this is still the common thread (even amongst the catchers),, we fish to fish, not catch, the food is not the reason we are there/here/whatever,,, but some of us got to catch literal tons while idling away the day.
