What's wrong with this picture?

In this months Fishing Victoria Monthly, the artical on Bemm river in paragraphs 2 and 3 they talk about there competition which was held between Bemm river angling club and Stratford angling club and Di Cunningham caught there winning fish of 1.291kg.
Then in the next paragraph they go into that the competition is a catch and release event and states " with catch and release paramount", I don't know if they saw the photo but the fish is as dead as they come, the only thing missing is a coffin.
I have attached two photos , check it out, DISGRACEFUL.

I dont see a single thing wrong with it.

Hahaha, I see what you mean.... No surprise if there's a frying pan behind her all heated up ready to go

Mmm this Fishing Monthly tells porky pies. Your right the photo doesn't match up with the quote in the article.
Its a big Bream to. I don't like seeing breaders being treated like this !

The article says that the ,"Our Bemm River Angling club recently held a competition against the Stratford Angling club."

The author(who is from the Bemm River Angling Club) also says that, "our angling club is leading the way.......with catch and release."

Perhaps she is from the stratford angling club!!!!

No point making a big deal about it.

yer i thought that to justin.. i dont think its to fair on the old lady calling it "disgraceful" thats a bit rashional for keepin that fish, thats how people in her generation were bought up.. now that we know better we should be doin something about it by doin what the bemm riverangling club is obviously doin and leading by example.

it would of been nice to see let go however she caught it

[blue lip hunter]

he says di cunningham is part of the bemm river angling club not the startford angling club....

[cobby]

Whilst I hate it, people can keep them as it is legal.

But to state in the article the angling club is leading the way etc. with C&R when the fish is clearly as dead as a door nail is disgraceful. Almost as good a journalism as ACA and TT

[dylman]

...if you hate seeing dead fish, then dont head to Bemm Melbourne Cup weekend when all the 'C&R' clubs have their comps....

She caught it.
She will eat it
THEN
She will release it
