Unlimited C&R
kills more than restricted C&K and that's just a fact whether you like
it or not.
Before I leave, I have to say that your statement above makes no
sense. I have seen C&K devistate a river, and I have watched the fish
gradually come back after C&R was implemented. It is NOT a fact.
I've seen catch and kill rape a river almost to the point of complete
failure of a species. Catch and release *DOES NOT* kill more fish than
catch and kill.
If saving the unique strain of brook trout on the Rapid as a
political/social move, then I am all for it. The meat gatherers were
doing a job on that river and now it is once again a beautiful place
to fish.
Color me gone fishing for big bows and browns..........
