Flushing live fish

[Dr.Gonzo4]

You're as bad as them, just cause you don't value the creature means it doesn't matter but then judge them for the same actions....



I wouldn't chop a dogs head off, I'd euthanize it by taking it to the vet. And before I get stupid responses about taking a sick fish to the vet every time I need it euthanized I have the means to do it to a fish humanely at home, not a dog.

Again, minnows are expendable because all they are is bait and food. Nothing else. Not pets. I'm pretty sure hooking them through the eye and casting them 20 feet over and over till death or being eaten is more cruel then flushing, and I don't mind that. Its when people do this to fish that are meant to be pets that pisses me and others off. I really don't care what people think of the way I view animal euthanasia. Especially about a minnow haha.

Hell Yeah, pretty much the way I see all my fish. They are really just objects in my possession and not pets. Pure decoration, so I guess flushing them live is perfectly fine when I need to get rid of them.

You forgot to go into the detail of what stress the bigger fish that just tried to eat that poor little bait fish after the 20 foot cast goes through next lol. Or how some are still flopping around while i gut em, they dont always die that quick in the creel. But i still dont purposely flush live pet fish.

The bottom line here is yes fish that were bought or taken by other means for the purpose to kill re different than pets.

Picking and choosing what you want to class as cruel just because of your attachment to an animal is stupid.

After 8 pages I think everyone got to voice their opinion on this subject, so before it goes south I'm going to close it now.
