In Norway Catch and Release is getting more and more popular on hallibut and cod. This video show the fight of a smaller
130 lbs specimen.  Specimen of 300 lbs are common up there, maybe due to the C&R practice.

They say Catch and Release fishing is a lot like golf.

I'd eat the fish raw before I'd jump in the water to revive it.  Why did he have to get in the water?  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

Great video! I need to bring one of those hali's home. I thought they were wearing exposure suits in case they accidentally got tossed in the frigid water. :-\

To support the fish until sufficient water had washed through its gills and it had revived enough to be released.

I've got a t-shirt, they're available on that well-known auction site.

If you google images "fillet & release", it'll come back with loads of options
