Proper Fish Care for a Joyful Fishing Experience

Part of the joy of fishing is being able to see lively, healthy fish up close and releasing them back into the water unharmed, ensuring that many other anglers can also enjoy the thrill of catching fish.

That’s why proper fish care is so important—it prioritizes the fish's condition above all else. You don’t have to be an eco-warrior to care about keeping fish in the best possible shape. After all, no angler wants to brag about catching a damaged, unhealthy fish. We all want not just a personal record but also the most beautiful fish, one that’s a joy to look at and looks great in photos.

A true carp angler also values that other anglers experience this feeling and treat fish with the same care before releasing them so that others can enjoy this experience again in the future.

Anglers have the responsibility to care for and preserve the health of fish. If you find any ulcers or open wounds, apply a local treatment such as The One PROPO propolis disinfectant—it should always be within reach or at least kept in your bag.

It creates a waterproof layer over ulcers and open wounds, preventing dirt, debris, and pathogens from causing infections that could potentially kill the fish.

Made with natural antimicrobial properties and sourced from bees, propolis is known as nature’s antibiotic and helps keep fish in excellent condition.
