Video Captures Fishing Rage: Mate Goes Berserk After Angler Loses Fish 
By Doug Olander UK Source: sportfishingmag 6/14/2012

On June 14, I posted a video in this blog that showed a shocking display of anger on the part of a mate when one of his anglers made a mistake in a fight with a large marlin and lost the fish.

In part, it served as a reminder that fishing is, after all, meant to be fun, and we should be cautious about letting ourselves take it too seriously.
 

The video definitely got folks riled up, and their comments made it clear they agree that losing a fish isn’t worth losing one’s temper.

But then I noticed comments being left here and many more on SF's Facebook page becoming increasingly hostile, some disturbingly so.

I did not at any point post the name of the charter boat or its skipper, nor give any specific information beyond the general area. But at least a couple of commenters did so.

Soon after, the captain involved contacted us. He wanted us to know that he’d fired the mate — but he was now getting death threats.
