Great post Bruce I think you it the nail on the head.Like I said earlier in this thread.The C&R guys have no problem with killing native fish as long as they get to keep fishing.And there is no dought they do have a impact on the wild fish.
Rob Allen just loves to tell people that they are stupid if they kill a native fish.Rob you need to take a good hard look in a mirror.
because C&R does kill some fish.A dead fish is a dead fish.Do you think by releasing a dead fish it will somehow come back to life to spawn? The only way to protect these fish is to stop fishing for them.If that means closing the rivers so be it.
