I found it rather interesting that many of the folks for the moratorium are all holding pictures of big fish - OUT OF THE WATER - which is now illegal. I cannot wait to bust some of you guys with my camera and see you prosecuted by your own law. Be sure to smile for the picture boys! It is going to F&W and will be plastered all over the web.

Guess that offers a hint on what I think of this knee jerk, feel good decision. If a fishery will support a harvest, then it should be allowed. If numbers decline, reduce the harvest. Allowing fisherman 2 or 3 wild ones a year would have been better than a total cut off since it would have allowed an occasional kill. Emotion - not science - won out. I wouldnt be proud of what was 'accomplished'. The guiding industry will take a serious hit now. All the ex loggers turned guides will have you to thank for being unemployed.
