Catch and kill. We're not taking them home as pets. :-)

Speak for yourself, I've brought quite a few fish home as pets
over the years.

Never put bluegills in an aquarium, they are almost as dirty as
goldfish.

You catch fish, on a hook, and take them homes as pets? That's
disgusting. It's like wounding a deer, shoving it into your trunk,
taking it home, and nursing it back to health. Bizarre.

Awwww, poor little fishies....you're certainly earning your bleeding
heart merit badge.

I killed seven fish today. The thought of bringing them home as pets
never crossed my mind. OK, I can see how it might be, like, an
experiment, but a PET FISH? Give me a break. Get a dog.

Oh I see, it's a man thing. Real men don't have aquariums, Eh?

Get a life, they are just fish.

You are such a priss. Let me guess, Californian?

Since we're comparing our manliness now, I've killed fish as well.
I'm having some I killed for dinner tonight. I've also brought
some home and kept them in a fish tank sometimes. Boo hoo.

Do you cry when you go past pet shops and see all those poor little
fish kept in fish tanks?

It's also illegal in many states...

OK, Flyfishers! How did I do?

You did very well. Here's some more vendor links that direct you to my
favorite fly fishing retailers on the net:


Thank you very much, Bruce! Several of those links have interesting
things to offer besides gift certificates, like the yearly fly tying
instruction books at Blue Ribbon Flies. I'll be adding those sites to
the page within the next day or so.

Usually non-native/nuisance species or those stocked in put-n-take
fisheries.

Why? Why does anyone keep fish in an aquarium?
It's just an added benefit that it seems to upset the
"manly men" who apparently aren't as confident in their
masculinity as they make out to be.

Just think of it as a live tank.
