Just for info, these are actually danish productions. There are 4 vids in all, basically called The secrets of the seatrout.
Throughout the videos, you see that the majority of the fish are actually returned. The legal limit here is 50cm and they must be silver with loose scales if they are to be kept.
You also have to understand that over in Denmark, the seatrout is not so rare as to need an outright C&R policy...there are plenty of fish in the sea so to speak so taking a few for the table is not a problem at all.
The Danes are also very good at managing the spawning rivers, with electro fishing and harvesting of eggs and milt carried out on most.
There is a very good DVD which will play in english called 'sea trout angler on fyn' (
| visitfyn.com ) which might interest some of you? Unfortunately the other 'secrets of the seatrout' series doesn't come in english, but it's still well worth a watch!
