Bob,
I'll admit I've strayed somewhat from the subject of this thread and apologize for doing so.

I do think it's important which side of game laws a person operates on. On this I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

As for preserving part of an already dead fish, a part that would be discarded anyway, into something beautiful to be admired, being a "sin" well I just don't get that. Besides, one activity is legal the other is not. Perhaps privately you can help me to understand your point of view.

In the future I will limit my posts to those that are informative in nature rather than a discussion of issues and opinions, which I thought were allowed here. I will not, however, apologize for attacking illegal activities in the field.

Best regards,
Doug
