Yup, that's the one I was referencing - though you got the genders mixed up.I taught my nephew that "adage" before he started school....boys rule, girls drool...is that the one you were recalling??
Good practice, always releasing the big fish. I don't think its fair for them to end up mounted on someone's wall. When I used to fish, they were either released or they were eaten. When my half brother and his family were living with us, he used to take his sons out fishing a lot. Once his oldest son caught the biggest largemouth bass I've ever seen - bloody thing was 15 pounds. They brought it home, put it in a Rubbermaid tub full of water and it stayed there until it died. Completely wasted. My father was furious, and I straight up cried. I seem to recall that they moved away shortly after that - I often think that incident had something to do with it.
I detest trophy hunting as well - if you're going to go out into the woods and shoot something, you had better plan on making use of every part of it.
