I think that gooose did a very good job on summing up a lot of others member's thoughts on this subject! Yes, there are many true believers such as salmo, but not all believe the way that he does. That does not make him wrong, nor does it make him incorrect in his beliefs! (I think that I may have political blood in my veins now!).

CnR is almost like a religion to some members. But like all religions, many people have many different view points about it.

ltlCLEO; "Drama" was a very appropriate term to use. I for one am the kind of fishermen that can respectfully disagree with others also. I hear a lot of different opinions on this subject, and still believe that under the "right" circumstances wild fish can be harvested. After all, what biological facts support the theory that "wild" fish actually originated in the same stream that they currently strive in? That should get some of you jumping!!!

Thanks again Salmo g for being so open on this subject, and your open true opinion…I think that there is still hope!!!
