With gyotaku the art of fishing meets art of drawing

As long as I can remember I have always been fond of fish world and fishing. When fish are activ, fishing takes me out of anything. My heart beats and my blood flashes when I see a big fish I can lure. I dont fish to kill, most of time I catch and release except nice subjects that  I reserve to cuisine and also to drawing. 
Better than photographs, I prefer to use gyotaku technic. This is an old japaneese art consisting in printing the fish on paper (washi) or cloth. I use natural sepia ink or just lemon juice,  and so the fish can still be cooked after the picture. See few examples below :
