It is certainly an interesting emotional roller coaster to pull on a hoop net (when seeking lobster or crab), feeling the weight in the net as you pull the rope, only to discover an angry, thrashing moray eel looking back at you with those somewhat reptilian but equally kitten-like eyes... then you realize, "Hey cool! A moray eel! Let's throw it back before someone loses a thumb!" So if you were graphing that on some kind of psychological emotional metric, it would go: Excited... Somewhat disappointed... Surprised... Compassionate... Fulfilled (upon the release). Thanks for the ed-cred. :) Ben Great post, Ken!
