I started to watch the video but had to turn it off. My thought was I know its catch and release fishing but it is very unethical to be targeting a species that takes years to grow and reach maturity while on their spawning beds. Most places the season on lake trout is closed at that time. Don't know about here or where he was fishing but in Ontario it was ILLEGAL to specifically target any species during a closed season on them. I expect even if those fish swam away appearing unharmed that there will still be a % that were killed unseen and during the spawning period that takes out that many more. I have lost any interest at all in watching this guys videos any longer....
