The supposed "fish thrown back" etymology

[edit]

Seems like debunked nonsense: see [1]. Equinox 10:38, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not really different sources claim different origins and there is no obvious "true" version and much more recent sources (having looked at possible etymological origins) still carry the "fish thrown back" version as well. Note the sources for all of that are in the article.--Kmhkmh (talk) 18:48, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
