Just to clear up my position:
If it is legal...it is up to the individual to establish his moral/ ethical guideline that may be above the minimum of the law.
Many/ most of us have many "higher rules" that we establish for ourselves.
Telling others that their legal activity that does not meet my "higher" standard is where I differ with Kareem. If you use that logic, Who is to say that you doing fishing thats all C&R is not actually more cruel than keeping fish. Someone might say that a harvested fish feeds a family, man, etc.
A C&R fish just hurts innocent fish and possibly injures them to die later in the water.
Do you see the danger of making our moral values everyone else's?
Most (sadly not all) fishermen will exercise good judgement,,,,,cant get em all.
