False. At leat one of these should be holding a fish!

That’s not even limited to the 40+. When I was on Tinder I started trying to keep tally of all the guys holding up fish or dead deer heads, but when it was like 90% of the profiles I gave up. (Midwest USA probably skews that a lot though.)

It's probably some sort of sample bias. People who don't take a lot of photos will still almost always snap a photo with a nice fish.

Back when people actually used plenty of fish, it was considered ironic.
