Well, sparkey you obviously assume (once again) that I sit back and do nothing.... You misunderstand that choosing not to pressure wild fish in itself IS doing something, mainly because you dont want to make that sacrifice and thats fine, but to keep saying were all doing nothing..... thats just idiotic.

I really dont need to justify myself to you or anyone else....but I'll humor you, Lets just say that I am very involved in my local fisheries, a former board member of a fly fishing club (we do many projects up here), and I spend a lot of time educating others on our resources... I spend many days a year cleaning habitat on an local watershed with my club, collect data and monitor a local stream, volunteer to teach youth how to tie flies, cast a fly rod, and generally teach them how to respect our resources, and will be helping run a local youth fishing derby this weekend where again we will be volunteering our time to introduce local youth to fishing. There are other monitary contributions I make but dont advertise, nor will I disclose to you. My club generally doesn't try to pass legislation to influence how other fish, or hold fish for that matter... I think by promoting the sport of fishing, and teaching how and why to repect the resource will go a long way to help save it in the future.

Another assumption down the crapper....
