Maybe already mentioned, but think of a state like florida. Tarpon are a no kill fish and that doesn't stop people like myself from visiting and booking fishing charters. Hell, you're not even allowed to take the damned things out of the water! Granted, they have no food value, but people obviously don't care about taking somethin back with them. There is no reason to believe that keeping only one fish per person will harm the striper charter industry. I worked on a charter boat for years, and to be honest the customers would almost always exchange puzzled glances at the dock, wondering who would take the last few fillets home. Killing a bass is every angler's right, but killing your limit because you can is a waste, and I think it's important to educate people on the value of catch and release.
