Thumper.. it's probably time for this thread to die but anyway... Ethics and morality may not be interchangable but the concept of both are very much related. They are both rules for governing behavior. All i am saying is that some behaviors should not be displayed on a stream by anyoe, let alone thoes professiong to be sportsmen. I believe that as an absolute because i don't feel that I have the right to go out and ruin anyone elses day. Snaggers very often ruin the day foreveryone else, just like the guy who achors up in the middle of a trolling area. wether it's morality or ethincs or whateverr else we choose to call it people should behave properly while in the field, if they don't they show disrespect for everyone else out there and for the resource itself. it is such people I am referring to when i use strong language. I think it is unsportsman like to snag a fish no matter the species, the purpose you have for the fish or the willingness of that species to bite.
Snagging IS ethically wrong no one should ever be doing it for any reason.
