“I’ll assume it’s the measure of respect we have for our prey (and wildlife in general).”

That’s a good way of putting it.

It’s a blood sport and I’ll make few apologies for practicing it. I find it most interesting that the non-sportsmen find it so compelling, and the angling brotherhood finds it distasteful. I’ll assume it’s the measure of respect we have for our prey (and wildlife in general).

… not all sportsmen show respect, but most do.

With this video was another showing them filleting a live fish for sushi. As the patron ate the flesh they put the fish back into the tank where it swam around using only fins (to the delight of those eating).

We like our fish fresh – yet less “fresh” than others.

I’m not a member of PETA – but at least have the decency to kill a thing before you deep fry it.

I have to say this was a little disturbing. Maybe it’s hypocritical for an angler to say that, but I hope that catch and release fishing isn’t quite as bad as being fried alive.

Some things ain’t right. This is one of them.

For me personally that is wrong in so many ways, but to each his own. We eat cows and other cultures consider them gods.
