TC, R 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. JT 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." TC, R Now THAT is a definition worth clipping. Stated eloquently, to boot. Your pal, Halfordian Golfer |
