I also agree with George.

I will also say I typically don't fish my ponds anymore until harvest time, not because they will learn to avoid my lures, but I don't want to take a chance on losing any of them. I guarantee you you will lose some fish with catch and release no matter how careful you are. Maybe a small number but some will fight to exhaustion and could die up to three days later.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
