Catch and release technique

I've seen it done on fishing shows. I do it for panfish. I take more
care with gamefish and bass. I'm referring to shaking a fish off a
hook. Is it acceptable for true catch and release standards.

Hey Fishtale,

If you practice catch and release go visit MyFish.com and add your
fish totals to the site catch counter. By filing a fishing report you
will see the site catch and release totals increment real time as
you
record your trip. See real time how your catch affects our
conservation
effort. MyFish is like MySpace for anglers..Free weather, tides,
logbooks, personal pages, forums, etc and the catch stats from our
logbook are provided to your local DNR (Dept. of Natural
Resources) /
CCA to allow them to see the local recreational catch.

There's no such thing as a true catch and release standard.

Thank you ....Randy
The standard is to cause as little harm as possible to your quarry.

I just meant that everybody does what they think is right. Personally, I
don't think that barbed multiple trebles are consistant with my idea of
C&R, but can understand why others would have no problem with it. "Shaking
off the hook" can also injure a fish.
