Conception Bay catches....


I got to thinking. :light:

Why not post some pics of fish caught within the Bay of Conception? Who knows..it COULD be good again. :rolleyes:

Witness the past:


Dog snapper and langosta - Beans

.

Personal pan-sized red.
.

Back in the day..when big dorado were plentiful inside the bay..and giant red snapper balled the bait.
.

This was not that long ago...maybe 6 years ago? By Barga Island.

More than just wishful thinking...the Bay could produce fish like this AGAIN. If it is managed properly and the current commercial fishing laws strictly enforced.

Fishing for deep fish pretty much seals the hooked fishes' fate -- you might as well eat it if you get it to surface. Perhaps shallow-caught fish have some chance of survining catch-release

I think deflating the bladder is pretty likely to kill a fish. Would you survive if someone used overwhelming force to pin you down and then used an unsanitary needle and imprecise jab in the gut to treat your stomach gas?

Of course, after you are hooked and brought to the surface with massive gas bubble in your belly, I suspect that damage is already done, and being stuck like a voodoo doll is probably no worse for you after your fate has already been determined.

Read this nomad thread for information on how to do it properly.

p.s. never puncture a fish's extended bladder in the belief that doing so will allow the fish to return to the depths unharmed...it will surely die.
