He is reluctant because it isn't clipped and you aren't suppose to take wild ones out of the water even for photos.

It isn't just wild, but anything that will be released.
Though, plenty of bios pull them out of the water for pictures and then leave them out on tables while tagging and measuring and probing with needles. 

Tell your bud nice fish!

Great Fish!
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.

Fish of a lifetime is spot on!!!
It is hard to follow one great vision in a world of darkness and of many changing shadows. Among these shadows men get lost.
