Sorry...I'm not a paid member of that site...would rather support the sponsors here..

Those guys could be just what you propose...but let's disagree on the facts instead of debating personality.

Back when I was in Bible college I used to debate doctrines with this other preacher...and he would go for a little while, and when he could no longer Scripturally support his claims, he would begin personal attacks. It wasn't that he was "wrong", but insted of using his brain and knowledge he wanted to make it that I was the "bad guy" and fog up the fact that he could not support his positions.

There are a LOT of "amateur" or "arm chair" fish biologists out there, but some of these guys are the ones that have to make the decisions and then be responsible for the outcomes; far more responsibility than we have to bear.

There DOES seem to be a lot of science on both sides of the isle...and I find it interesting that we have differing viewpoints arising from essentially the same research materials.

Hey...I saw a guy bag a nice Dolly (maybe 5#?) today with one of them 14' monsters you guys call "fly" rods. Was quite a site!
