There is an easy test - just stick one of the hooks you use through your

Total B.S.

I stick A hook in your lip, and pull, you follow, because if you don't
it hurts MORE

Put one in a fish and pull, he pulls the other way as hard as he can,
because it "does not hurt", he instead feels just trapped, most fish
don't even bleed when hooked in the lip. If fish felt pain, fishing
would not be even fun, they would just swim right up to you, instead of
fighting, (yet you claim this latter kills them, total PETA B.S., not
from any real data.)

Of course they have actually hooked fish up with electronic sensors ,
and proved they lack the part of the brain that senses pain.

I have seen sharks , get "mortally" bitten in a feeding frenzy, and they
two continue to feed until the die, not showing any signs of being bitten.

All this is PETA propaganda, that fish feel pain,, but you know what,
even if they did, I don't CARE, one way, or another, if they would still
fight against the hook, and line, of course they wouldn't, I just hate
people LYING to get their point across.

A baited hook is a very successful means of capturing mammals, yet there
is no one, anywhere, that does that for sport, ever thought of why ?
Sure today, there are laws against it, even for catching "food", but
back when there were no such laws, there is no record of people doing it
for "sport". because there is no "sport" to it. Some did use it, to feed
their families.

Why do you never hear PETA raise all HELL, about the pain caused when a
mountain lion kills a jogger ? Or a shark attacks a swimmer ?, or when
an animal inflicts pain on another animal ? WE "all" know why they don't :-)

If I invented a fish hook that injected Novocain as it stuck the fish,,
do you think PETA would then say fishing with it, would be A OK ?

ASK PETA leaders, hell I could invent it in about 10 min. It would make
me millions as an "approved" PETA fish hook, tell them I'll give them
10% of the profits.

ROTFLMAO

David - who has no probs about fishing for a feed,


What? You you say it's OK to inflict pain, just so people can "enjoy"
fish, and chips ????????????????

WHAT a Moron, the pleasure of eating something, is more pleasure that
catching something, so then the "pain is OK" ? Well nothing to fear,
there was no pain , even in the fish you eat, so you can eat that fish
without guilt .
