Because, unfortunate as it may be...it isn't illegal. so if you want to initiate the kind of change your looking at....you need to change the rule.
and to change the rule you have to work together for a common ground....not point fingers.
people who fish and keep fish look at the other side (C&R) as being greedy for trying to take away from them.
so Who's Right? Who's Wrong?
Calling people greedy for doing something that is perfectly legal for them to do is not going to foster any kind of cooperation....its only going to build walls and no one will give an inch for a common goal.
like I said....20 years from now this argument will still be waging and nothing will change, because nobody will give the 10-20% that needs to be given to make a change.
Instead of Game Fish and 1 @ 36" why not go 50% reduction for commercial take and 1 @ 36"....doesn't that cut the take pretty much in 1/2 and allow both parties to do their part AND keep doing what they currently do....only in a reduced manner that will help the stocks
not saying thats the answer...but for anything to be accomplished there needs to be give and take on everybody's part
