No.


Sweet!

OK...so following along...

Our relationship with fish include stressing and killing them purely
for recreation. (Socrates)

Nope. My recreation is every bit as important as the few
fish which accidentally die as a result of my C&R. Where
regulations permit I will eat the fish I kill and where
it's illegal to keep a fish the turtles and otters will
eat them. A few dead fish do not matter one whit to me,
I look at the bigger fishery management picture. As do
most of the folks who have grown weary of your tedious
and tiresome anti-C&R crusading.
