Is it something that you as an individual do ?
What are your reason for/ against?

I do not like to sack fish, reasons being:
1) stress.
2) damage,
3) disease (carried from water, to water)
4) fish care.
no-one really need to keep fish in a sack, I have heard of fatalities due to this....  |

There is a proper way to do it , it is not something I practice myself. I know that people do it for photographic resasons. |

I wouldn't personaly do it myself, i want to get the fish back in as soon as i can, photos can look just as good in the dark, i fish alone most of the time so i don't get too many pics anyway, i think it's an unecessary thing to do and adds more stress to the fish, which we all know is a well know killer. |

I must admit in years gone by ...I did used to sack my fish 
but these days with moden camer's, I dont see any need to do it 
there is no point ....unles its for fish care reasons.
Here is a 40+ Common taken in the night, it was part of 3 40's I hade one night on La Horre ....as you can see from the black back grownd it shows the carp of realy well

There is no doubt that you can get a cracking photo at night as you have proved Ron. |

I agree, you're are looking at what you should be looking at, the subject. When you add the night time pics with pics from daytime catches on a disc or an album, it looks more interesting, plus the viewer can see you caught the fish at night, i do like commons, lovely fish Ron. |
