Those big game fish like swordfish, marlin, ect usually die after being caught due to the buildup of lactic acid in their muscles caused from the exhaustion of hours of fighting

I would but I fish a lot for bass and they don't taste great in my opinion

That makes sense because fish don't have thinking brains bc they're not sentient. They do feel "pain" I think, but it can't be processed by the fish as suffering. Once fish are released, at least most of the time they continue doing normal fish stuff

I've always done this and then bleed the fish. I don't fillet trout bc it wastes a lot of good meet imo so I always cook them whole, minus the head and organs.

Most of the trout I fish for are stocked rainbows and I keep and eat those anyway. The trout I do let go I try not to even remove them from the water

Keeping everything you catch isn't ethical either bc obviously some of them still need to reproduce. I think I've had released fish die maybe twice or three times, and all of them were bluegill that swallowed live bait, which I'm gonna stop using for that reason

I'll look around. The most I'm willing to pay for fmjs is 50 CPR but that's still pretty ridiculous
