Ralph - As you yourself said in your last statement in your original post, you do have a big one. Between your irrevalent babbling and your certain inability to get a point across, I couldn't tell if you were a college professor, a scientist, or a politician. Darwinism, Geomorphology, Pacific Decadel Oscillations, and Slade Gorton? Good God.

I think your statement that "Catch and release is only an excuse to further deplete the resource" is probably the most absurd post I've ever read on this site - and believe me, that's saying alot.
