If it ever happens here, my guess is it would start in ...
California :-)

Well, if it ever does, we can hope it ends there, too :-)

Fortunately, the Greens hold little sway Stateside. I doubt they could get
anything like this passed - even in the land of fruits, nuts and flakes :-)

Meanwhile, I expect there'll be a lot of net-less Swiss "accidentally"
dropping their catch back in the water. Repeatedly and often - them fish is
slippery, ya know...

/daytripper (and that'll be just fine)

And only stocked fish by 2050.

What is the point of banning BOTH C&R and barbed hooks?

A rule promulgated by idiots, the point is atop their heads...

It's fairly obvious that humankind is moving, inextricably, towards a
more humane relationship with wild animals.

You have a choice.

1) call them idiots or
2) try to understand their point of view while protecting your right
to harvest from God's abundance

My only caution would be that you should consider the scope of this
problem and the trends, carefully. As fun as it may be you are not
arguing with me. You are arguing with the inhabitants of all those
lofts that are being constructed in the urban reformations. They eat
sushi and raise puppies and outnumber you 100 to 1. To quote Russell
Chatham, "their only encounter with un-reconstructed nature is
stepping in a pile of poodle excement on the sidewalk".

I've said my piece on this for 2 decades, yet, admittedly, even I was
stunned by the clarity of the wording, because it cut directly to the
core of the issue, far sooner and far more clear than I had
anticipated. It about sums it up. "it is not permitted to go fishing
with the 'intention' to release the fish.", the word "intention" being
fulcrum.

Anyway, the jig is up. This one has been decided.

This specific question should become a lot more real now: If I had to
kill the fish I catch, would I still fish?

I could see banning fishing altogether as being at least logically
consistent, but this? It's absurd.

Guys. I've unsubscribed from ROFF. Just not worth the abuse from a few
people.

If you want me I'll respond to polite posts in alt.flyfishing and, if
ever in Colorado, get hold of me there and I'll see if I can arrange a
pass with ya or send ya some bugs.

Your pal,
