Subject: Proper handling of fish

I live in the Pacific northwest and was just watching your show on the Northeast Great Outdoors show. I must say I was appalled at the way you handled the steelhead you released! You are NEVER supposed to put your fingers in the fishes gill plates! You could have and probably did harm many of those fish you caught. The gill rakers are the most fragile area on a fish and putting your hands and fingers in these areas is a dangerous practice! I would suggest you if you intend to release the fish you have on to not even net them. Our guides out here in Oregon would never handle fish the way you do. Being on TV and saying you've fished for steelhead for 20 years you should know better! I shudder to think of the amount of fish you've damaged or killed handling them the way you do. You would never get away with that out here. Shame on you!
