When I was a kid it felt great when I brought my neighbors a big fish or a couple fillets.One day I realized I had to stop as I was hurting the fish. it's part of the learning curve. We ALL go through it. Catch n release used to mean you tied a bad not,had cheap gear or screwed up somehow LOL.None of us should critisize those who haven't learned what we have the hard way. Those of us that learned the hard way just need to keep teaching how to make things get better.Those that haven't learned need to understand that we are serious about how bad it got but it can be fixed.We're not trying to take anything away from you just get you to help us save what we have so you can teach YOUR grandkids how fun it is to chase Striped Bass an how great it is to meet friends while doing it.
