Spearfishing is nowhere near as easy as those who have never done it think it is. If it was, then everyone would be doing and they would be shooting tons and tons of nothign but huge fish. Just like in rod and reel fishing, there are bad eggs that will fish irresponsibly but this is not the majority of the fishery. Spearfihsing has far less by catch and wasteful killing, overall, than RnR. Think about it, there is no such thing as catch and release spearfishing. Do you also oppose hunting with a gun? It is ignorant to think that RnR fishermen don't wastefully kill fish of all types. Even the most careful catch and release rod and reeler kills fish, they just don’t like to or are unwilling to admit as such.
