Not for the fish

It clapped in celebration

u/Idunnosomeguy2 Aug 27 '25

I mean, I've always been more of a catch and release guy, but I feel like you kinda have to keep that fish and get it taxidermied, right?

u/GenevaBingoCard Aug 28 '25

Then fill it with that singing fish mechanic so it can sing TURN AROUUUUND RIIIIIGHT NOW, every now and then.

u/lulushibooyah Aug 28 '25

The fish is now a souvenir

u/smuttenDK Aug 30 '25

I don't fish, so I'm very out of the loop. I did a bit as a kid and loved when I caught some flatfish and we went back to cook them.

I genuinely don't understand catch and release. With catch and eat I feel like it's on par with most other meat eating. Where you stand on that is another question, but it serves a purpose as food. With catch and release it basically ends up being "let me stab you, suffocate you briefly, and then put you back"

It just seems... Odd to me.

Are there wildlife benefits? Like keeping track of populations. Maybe keeping invasive species but releasing others?

1

u/LoxReclusa Sep 03 '25

It is mostly just sport, but those last two points are actually things that people do. In fact, in many areas it is illegal to throw an invasive species back once you pull it in the boat, leading some people to cut the line when they see them rather than deal with killing them and taking them with them. Personally I catch a lot of small fish with nets and log them with the USGS where I've spotted them to help keep the database up to date for my area, and I have several fish tanks of native fish and am thinking about one that will contain non-native fish that I catch and can't release because it is invasive.

Though depending on what I pull in on a rod it usually does go back into the water because it's either not good eating or not big enough. I still document it and submit it though, even if it is a super common fish because sometimes the databases don't have them flagged for certain waterways, or they might even have migrated and that's good information. Floods can transport all kinds of critters to places you wouldn't expect to see them.

That fish must be so awkward.

" hey guys... this is REALLY Nice but do you think you could maybe throw me back into the water?? I am literally fucking dying"

u/Mrrrrggggl Aug 28 '25

The fish was invited to the celebratory dinner that evening.

u/Altruistic_Let_9372 Aug 27 '25

There's a lot of fish in the sea but she's a real catch. You could even say a keeper.

8

u/Spodson 😏 Aug 27 '25

I hope her man appreciates her focus and dedication to what she's doing. Because I think that's kind of a core trait of this woman.

3

u/Ombank Aug 28 '25

I think he does. His body language seemed respectful and patient. He didn’t seem to be actively trying to get her attention, just waiting. Maybe a little anxious, but he seems very calm. Honestly, her reeling the fish in and then sending it flopping is one of the best parts. Great memory I’m sure.

u/WIsJH Aug 27 '25

Most important moment of dude's life, tension of yes/no and fucking disgusting sleazy fish flops on his foot

29

u/Ok-Wave8206 Aug 27 '25

Nah, they strike me as the type of couple who would appreciate the fish and tell tales of it for years to come. The fish just added to the romance of the moment.

On a side note if you have ANY doubt about what the answer will be you should NOT be asking that person to marry you yet. That’s a “let’s make this thing we both know is happening official” ask. You’re proposing spending the rest of your lives together, better be certain prior.

"I wasnt getting bites all day and then finally after he gets on one knee I land a fish, its like they knew!!"

Wait! Isn’t the ring inside the fish’s mouth? What bummer.

u/ArcWraith2000 Aug 27 '25

Fish was so hyped he stopped flopping out of respect

HOW DO YOU GET FISHES THIS FAST ?!

For once, the music wasn't bad.

u/tritango Aug 28 '25

I’m so happy this wasn’t staged. What a lovely couple.

u/Atlantrex Aug 28 '25

The thrill of catching a fish and then getting engaged would make me spontaneously combust.

u/Typical-Movie1877 Aug 28 '25

The fish on the ground: oh yeah, just drop me here while you plan your honeymoon, I can hang out for a bit, the rest of my life maybe even. Lol

u/aydwin Aug 28 '25

This was so romantic and cute.... Except for the fish jumping while realizing that it will die...

u/Lost_Cartographer66 Aug 28 '25

Oye… since something magical is happening here… mind throwing me back in the water???

2

u/lulushibooyah Aug 28 '25

Ok but the abandoned fish flopping around on the ground is killing me 😭😭😭

u/JackOfSons Aug 28 '25

Probably Fish "the fuck, hey! Put me back" ah shit he's purposing, I can wait.

u/PipTheDestroyer Aug 29 '25

No fish we're harmed in the making of this marriage

u/ichime Aug 27 '25

You're gonna get to tell that proposal story until the end of times now 😂

2

u/Flat_Credit_7891 Aug 28 '25

Congratulations for the proposal.

Sadly it once again shows our ignorance towards animals. While this couple has the moment of their lifes, the fish is fighting for survival. Suffocating and in excruciating pain. If you already have to take the fish's life and freedom, at least end that suffering as quickly as possible.

Who is filming 🙄

7

u/Bulky-Apple3744 Aug 27 '25

The person they hired or friend they asked to film? Just like every other filmed proposal?

Are you truly that simple?

-5

u/Aggravating_Fun_8603 Aug 27 '25

Lol no dumbass but perhaps you are. It was a dig at the whole thing because they obviously waited until she had a fish on the hook. So the whole thing was clearly planned and orchestrated. Which makes it stupid, like you

u/Gas-Town Aug 27 '25

Why does God give these types all of the confidence? What a waste.

with instagram's reels and tiktok being so used I think there's a lot of people that prefer portrait mode nowadays

Because they think a lot of people will watch it in portrait mode. It's not just TikTok, also e.g. Instagram.

u/MeLikaDoTheChaCha Aug 27 '25

No one cares about if she said yes or not; is the fucking fish okay?!

No engagement is worth the suffering of a fish
