Please keep these tips in mind when you make your treasured big fish picture. For your good care of the fish and fishery,
a big THANK YOU! from Sugar Creek Ranch.

THE GOOD

The fisherman is in the water with the fish, firm grip on tail, support behind the gills, water dripping from fish. Have a friend take the photo.
THE BAD

• Do not remove the fish from the water for more than 10 sec.
• Never lay the fish on the ground! 
• Always handle with wet hands or a landing mit.  
• Always hold fish over water for photos.

THE UGLY

CATCH & RELEASE?


Just a bit of proper care could have prevented this unfortunate waste.
