If we kill fish for money, do we waive our rights to criticize commercial fishermen? Yes, we may only kill one or two fish, but we are participating in any event which may kill a considerable number of fish.
On a very basic level... there is no difference.
I guess if you support a managed level of commercial fishing and are only against over-fishing and decimation of fish stocks, then you probably are ok with it.
But if you are 100% pro-conservation, against commercial fishing, then fishing this tourney is a bit hypocritical.
If you're a tree hugging, veggie eating, cow loving, dues paying member of PETA, well, what the hell are doing reading our board! GET OUT!
