Funny how are thoughts and values change as the years roll on . Younger days a fish may be considered swimming meat . After fishing through the early 80's colapse and the 90's rebound we see things different . Then there's are own mortality. I can only fish my conscience and whos to say I'm right, but I can live with it . Killing for the right reason . Not wasting a fish . If people are eating the fish its not wasted, but is that why I killed it ? To feed the hungry ? Thats where the conscience thing makes you feel like crap . There's plenty of people taking shorts,drop kicking them back , ripping there guts out to save a hook . Thats cut and dry , we can all agree that sucks .. This other stuff is up to the individaul . Flap ,,you've been collecting lures and fishing since you were a little kid , You've fished all the spots , Fished with all the heavies, and wright for a major publication . Fishing has been your life . Do what you think is right . You have no one to impress . I really appreciate Nibs honesty.. always did . All that being said . I catch a 50 I'm keeping it .. My conscience alows it . I hate long post..
