Fishing Stinks

Where's the thrill in poking hooks through live worms in order to impale unsuspecting fish, before throwing them into a bucket where they suffocate slowly or are crushed to death? And this only after the excruciatingly painful decompression they suffer as they are dragged up through the water. Even those that are let go often die from their injuries or from shock. Yes, fish do have pain receptors, and they do feel fear.

Don't those who fish ever wonder, while reeling in a fish who's struggling to get free and to simply breathe, how it would feel if someone were to force and hold their head under water?

Eating fish isn't even good for our health, being full of pesticides and metals that cause cancer, brain damage and liver problems, but even if it was healthy, it would still be wrong. The very simple reasons being: we don't need to eat fish for survival. and fishing causes much fear and pain.
