a good guess would involve being snagged, wrestled to submission, and possibly drug over the rocks to make it easier to save a dollar and a half fly. Add a lowered dissolved o2 to that equation and you have stupid stupid stupid dressed up as a sportsman and angler extrordinare.

Yup. It's not at all uncommon to see that below the dam, especially in the spawn. Can't forget holding the fish while someone runs up and gets a camera either, seen it happen more than once.

Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.

One thing will stop most of it, fish can't lose contact with the water and fierce enforcement of it at the start. It isn't a new idea and I know of at least one state where it is the law. Only fish legal to keep and intended to be kept can be raised out of the water.

I agree with that.but it may not be practical in some cases such a gar fishing and unhooking large catfish. It would not be easy to unhook a 5 lb bass or larger fish either with a treble or two hooks in his mouth by leaning over the side of a deep V boat.
