I am happy to see that the fish was released. All too often these fish are killed for no reason. I really hate the bow hunters killing them for sport.

Cook him up, eat him. Cycle of life. As long as they are not endangered, no problemo. Even apex predators lose the game some days. Sport killing sucks, eating what you kill is natural.
No one thinks twice about killing a damn fine looking steer for steak. And yes, I think some beeves are just flat out awesome-looking. I spent my life around farm animals. I can appreciate the power and beauty in a beefer, the breeding that went into making him that way, the stolid majesty of him standing there overlooking his domain, and the next minute, start putting him into cutlets. One minute majestic, next minute food. Romanticizing food is not my thing.

Quick research shows I need to watch the doc Alligator Gar: Predator or Prey? (update: found it on YouTube)
Reminds me of the sturgeon docs I've seen.
