“…The present study joins a number of recent examples that have reported very low or even zero postrelease mortality in various freshwater fishes (e.g., Pope and Wilde 2004;Rapp et al 2012), including Rainbow Trout (Pope et al 2007). Negligible hooking mortality should generally be expected when environmental conditions are benign and the injury induced by the capture event is mild Pope et al 2007).…”

“…Our results can be explained by the fact that hatchery fish often show a reduced stress response (e.g., Weil et al 2001) and overall are more resistant to handling (Rapp et al 2012) than wild fish. Alternative explanations include the existence of environmental conditions within an optimal range (Schmidt 1998) that prevented a further deterioration of the fish's condition, use of generally well-conditioned fish (e.g., good nutritional status from artificial feed), and short air exposure of only 5 s during handling.…”

“…Gingerich et al (2007) showed that air exposure and water temperature may interact to cause behavioral changes and potentially large, delayed mortality in centrarchid fish. Increased handling time can also increase recovery times (White et al 2008;Arlinghaus et al 2009;Rapp et al 2012) and result in air exposure thresholds after which postrelease swimming performance declines (Schreer et al 2005). It appeared that our handling protocols did not exceed physiological thresholds for juvenile Rainbow Trout.…”

Catch‐and‐release angling is common in recreational fisheries. During handling and dehooking, fish are subjected to stress and dermal injuries, which may result in infections by pathogens after the fish is released. The objective of this study was to evaluate the consequences of common handling practices used by anglers on the postrelease behavior and fate, particularly the susceptibility to disease, of undersized Rainbow Trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. Behavior immediately following capture and subsequent release of fish was examined in a 40‐L container, and long‐term fate was studied for 2 weeks in tanks incubated with Saprolegnia parasitica zoospores. Trout were behaviorally impaired as indicated by the ease of being netted following the simulated fight associated with catch and release, but there were no further behavioral impacts due to subsequent handling. None of the Rainbow Trout developed fungal infections nor was any significant mortality observed after 2 weeks; only 1 out of 137 fish died. Our data indicate that juvenile hatchery‐reared Rainbow Trout have a high resilience to Saprolegnia infection handling‐induced stress.Received February 9, 2014; accepted August 25, 2014

Over the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of physiological tools and experimental approaches for the study of the biological consequences of catch‐and‐release angling practices for fishes. Beyond simply documenting problems, physiological data are also being used to test and refine different strategies for handling fish such that stress is minimised and survival probability maximised, and in some cases, even for assessing and facilitating recovery post‐release. The inherent sensitivity of physiological processes means that nearly every study conducted has found some level of – unavoidable – physiological disturbance arising from recreational capture and subsequent release. An underlying tenet of catch‐and‐release studies that incorporate physiological tools is that a link exists between physiological status and fitness. In reality, finding such relationships has been elusive, with further extensions of individual‐level impacts to fish populations even more dubious. A focus of this article is to describe some of the challenges related to experimental design and interpretation that arise when using physiological tools for the study of the biological consequences of catch‐and‐release angling. Means of overcoming these challenges and the extrapolation of physiological data from individuals to the population level are discussed. The argument is presented that even if it is difficult to demonstrate strong links to mortality or other fitness measures, let alone population‐level impacts of catch‐and‐release, there remains merit in using physiological tools as objective indicators of fish welfare, which is an increasing concern in recreational fisheries. The overarching objective of this paper is to provide a balanced critique of the use of physiological approaches in catch‐and‐release science and of their role in providing meaningful information for anglers and managers.

“…In this method, spawners as a rule are captured in nature, delivered to factories and kept in artificial conditions. It is shown that such procedures cause stress in fishes which is followed by changes in parameters of their neuroendocrine systems [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], carbohydrate [2][3][4][5][7][8][9][10][11], protein [12] and water-salt exchange [4,11,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. In condition of stress, spawners' synthesis of gonadotropic hormone and sex steroid concentration of 17,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one decline reproductive function [6,[26][27][28][29][30][31].…”
