Not sure if the guy was high grading or just trying to keep the fish fresh until he left.....either way he shouldn't have done it. Does remind me of a funny situation at the Big Qualicum one coho season.....a fella caught two beauty chrome mid teens coho & put them live into an old burlap potato sack that he had tied off to the shore. He fished for a couple of more hours releasing any further fish he caught. When he went to leave, he picked up the sack only to find the string holding the sealed end closed had fallen apart & the two coho had swum away. [:0] Man, was this guy pi$$ed!! He ranted & raved that someone had stolen his fish, threw his rod on the ground & kicked his tackle bag a half a dozen times. Finally gathered up all his stuff & stormed away. Don't know if he ever figured out it was his own stupidity that let the fish get away or if he convinced himself that someone stole them, either way it was good for a laugh. []

Stringers are only allowed if you keep DEAD fish on them.
