I relize most people practice this to some point, and that also many of us still kill trout and other fish to eat.

I was given a hard time about a trout I had killed a few years back. Then it struck me.

Sure I killed the trout, but that was nothing compared to the 5 animals that were killed to make the fly.

2 different roosters, a beaver, a moose and a deer.

Crying over one fish, but not the 5 animals that gave there life so I could catch the fish.

Just kinda ironic to me.......nothing meant.
