Suppose you catch a fish you don't want to eat while fishing for fish you
do want to eat?


TC,

Don't be surprised by the response you got.


I'm not surprised by any response around here.

I've asked Mr. Bone the same
question several time, he generally dances around it. In your case, he just
acted dumb...


It's a waste of time trying to get honest answers, many have tired.


Ah, well, see, there's something in my favor - I didn't give a hoot in
hell about the honesty of his answers.

Catch & Release is a conservation effort to protect stream viability for the
future generations, while enjoying the sport of fishing.


"Catch and Release," as in catching targeted fish with the intent of
releasing them, for sporting purposes, is not conservation and it does
nothing to protect "stream viability." The only rational is so that
humans can tell themselves such stuff. If the fish need protecting,
humans shouldn't be fishing for them. Conservation is limiting catches,
slot limits, etc., and there is no need for "conservation" when the fish
are farmed/stocked for the sole purpose of allowing humans to catch
them. There's no reason, on waters that are (objectively) fishable, to
prevent people from releasing "sporting" species (invasive species that
need to be removed are another story) if they wish to, but that does not
translate into the releasing of such fish being necessary or
"conservation."

Now THAT is a definition worth clipping. Stated eloquently, to boot.
