You have to wrap your mind around the fact that you are doing this because somewhere in the part of your makeup that you might not talk about, you get a thrill from hunting and killing.

good point Joe, I agree, there is a primal human urge to hunt and kill, that is life, and we as sportsman embrace it fully. It is similar to the urge to procreate
. Sure, we do the best we can to not deplete the species, and I think we are doing that, but if we all truly cared about not hurting these things, we would not be fisherman.
