I guess my point is that, although it's hard to stomach for sporties, unless there's a market for the resource, it's not really wasted if we use it for something. Criminy, at the price of pinks, they could use them for cat food and it wouldn't be wasted.

What concerns me more is the use of ocean resources by them, over spawning (don't know if it's really a big threat but I've heard it can cause problems), and even just too damn many dead fish in a stream.
