This is in no way meant to be confrontational, but farmed raised is a horrible idea. Fish farms have a far worse environmental impact than taking wild caught. I'm fine with the 1@32" thing if it passes, but just so everyone here is aware, I take my fish. Usually at any given time in the summer I have 1-2 fish in the freezer, and probably eat striper 1-2x a week. I'm sure that's pure evil for some on here, but I consider myself someone who really cares about where my fish come from and how it's handled. Buying farm raised from another place or even country not only creates an enormous amount of waste, but IMHO plays into the outsourcing game that seems to be prevalent in this country. I'm not some kill em' all guy, I care about these fish. I release a hell of a lot more than I take(maybe cause all I seem to catch are schoolies, lol). I don't fight them to the point of exhaustion on light tackle, and then try to revive them. I try to bring them in quick, measure and if it's a keeper and I need food, it gets knocked on the head, gills cut and put on ice really fast. I'm sure this won't be well received by a lot of people here, and I very much respect everyone's differing opinions(except for poachers), but farm raised is not an environmentally friendly alternative in anyway shape or form.
