I have researched some different methods, just never done it so I don't know what is the best. I was wondering what some of your methods are and what is the most human way in your experience?
Best method to Euthanize fish?

If it can fit into a tupperware, I would fill the tupperware with enough water so it can still swim, then placed into freezer. I've never had to deal with a monster size fish, but I suppose I would do what fishermen do and whack it on the head with some sort of "club"
Small fish usually go into a small container of isopropyl alcohol or bottom shelf booze. They die instantly, I wouldn't consider it painless, but exceptionally fast. And fast compared to taking a slow agonizing water park style ride down the toilet and to the waste water plant
I've heard of people doing the same with boiling water.
For giant monster fish? I have no idea.
Also I wouldn't eat fish raised in an aquarium. Perhaps it's no worse than farm raised fish, but it seems unhealthy to me

This is the best way, and it preserves the animal for a final goodbye
