rip the hook out of their mouth and throw the little bastards back in. Or take them home and fry their asses?

Depends on the fish I get.
Big pikes go back since they're full of bones and not good eatin... perch and good eating fish end up in my belly.

Usually throw them back for sure. There's hardly enough fish as it is these days without keeping all the ones you keep :)

try to take the hook out without hurting the fish then release it. if i want fish i goto the store, would rather not eat something that has been sucking pollution.

Yeah....Because all the store bought fish are raised in farms and fed only the finest fish food.

better than something that is swimming around in a river or lake polluted with heavy metals like mercury or lead.

I don't usually catch too many so I cook the ones that are big enough, through the little ones back in. :glugglug

ok, it's very debateable. catch and release is a good concept but there's a turn down about it too: usually the fish you relased won't bite next time to the same crankbair / shad etc...
When I catch fish I usually keep 2-3lbs of medium fish and release the old/young ones. I usually keep only the walleyes - best fish for me.

If I catch a tasty fish I keep it to eat , if no I set it free .

Throw em' back

Havn't been for a while but any fish i've caught in the past i've eaten, so long as the species is good and the size is legal.

Is it true if the line breaks, that the hook will eventually rust and fall out of their mouths or is that a bunch of BS. And how long if so. That would suck to be a fish with a hook in it's mouth for a few years.

The good hooks wont rust and I eat what is eatable and throw back what isn't...

i dont see the point in killing sailfish, not good eating and those arent worth mounting

I throw them back. Don't like to clean them, don't like to cook them, don't like to eat them.

Sometimes if I go with my dad and he plans on having everyone over for a big fish fry, we keep them all.

It really depends. Size, type of fish, salt or fresh, and do i really want to clean them. But I would say 50/50.:glugglug
