How NOT to handle fish.....
#1
This honestly makes me sick to my stomach. If anyone knows "EndlessOutdoor." Please teach him some ethics for the sport of bass fishing! I mean.... Trout fishing!

Just to list a few. Enjoy his vids on youtube!

That was pretty awful. Why would you want to catch trout on a flippin stick anyway? It always bugs me when I see people on tv swinging bass into the boat, but at least they're more durable than trout. Lame.

Ya I find it funny that he's like, scared to touch fish, yet loves catching them! Disgusting! Hopefully all the dead fish on the weber I've been seeing lately are from the spawn and not for this guy.

I left a not so raving review on this page of the first video. I try to live by the rule if it is bleeding too bad it stays in my quota except if it in a slot limit

So that's the A hole that's been raping that section of river. Well, there goes that hole.

So where exactly is this hole? I know it's on the Middle somewhere near the Rockport exit. Can tell by the cars in one of his video's. Wouldn't mind stopping by and having a chat.

I kind of have to laugh. It's like he's trying not to handle the fish, but he'd do so much less damage if he'd just dip his hand in the water and grab them to get those plugs unhooked.

Oh well. They've still got a better chance at living than if he'd kept them. That first one's a goner though.

It looks as if he's quite partial to that same stretch. Look for the Cabela's neo's.

People like that make me sick! I used to see this all the time when I lived in Kentucky for ten years...bass fishermen treating trout like all warm-water species...letting them flop on the ground for several minutes, then lipping them up for their redneck buddies to see, then throwing it back into the water to die....terrible.

A net would help aleviate one problem.
A smack up side the head with a 2x4 would solve another.

I respect you guys and your sport and the way you handle the fish, however it all looks like bait to me.

They shouldn't even be treating the warm water species that way either. They still lose their protective slime coat from rolling around on the boat carpet. It's just poor ethics all the way around with people like that.

Agreed, but bass will survive a few minutes on the deck of a boat...heck, they survive hours being sloshed around in livewells! Warm-water species are just simply tougher fish...but I always lip my bass bringing them into my boat, not only because it reduces the stress on the bass, but it keeps my carpet nice and clean!

Oh yeah, definitely tougher fish, but not indestructible. Carp on the other hand are like cockroaches.

No fish is indestructible...even a carp, lol! I have caughten flatheads and had them out of the water for nearly an hour and they still could have swam off....trout on the other hand, I have looked at one the wrong way and it died! [Wink]

True, but it takes some real effort to take out the carp [Wink]
