I am a guide and take clients fishing for nates. Before I even book a trip I make sure that they are OK with CNR. If not then I take them to a river that will not produce any nates or should I say not that many. I do not lose any clients over the issue. The ones that do not have a problem with CNR have one of the best days on the water just catching fish. None of the clients handle any of the fish and I use a CNR net and the fish never leaves the water. So I feel I am very responsible for having no impact on the decline of these fish and do not lose clients over this issue. I don't know for sure, but I am sure I am just one of the few. If there are others I would like to hear it.
