An interesting take on managing fisheries

[Tim_T]

I agree with the article 100%. Falls right in line with a recent discussion I had with a fisheries biologist. There's no need to bash people for taking bass home, they are just doing their part to help make it better as a whole.

I talk to fisheries biologist all the time (par of the job) and one thing they talk about is people not removing enough bass species. I understand the conservation ethic and the management behind catch and release, but it only makes sense that overpopulation can be a problem.

I often think of it like any wildlife. Look at the issues there would be with deer if it wasn't for hunting.
