Yeah, for some reason when you're fishing from land they tend to flip all around in the dirt and leaves when you take them out of the water. "Breaking the jaw and tearing the gills" is a little much, don't you think? I did my best to quickly unhook, photo, release this pup. Took off on it's own 2 seconds after I held it back in the water. Next time, I'll put up a pic of it swimming laps in a white bucket for ya
