[QUOTE="FightingSioux, post: 364961, member: 1333"] I really don’t get people’s beef with this public awareness bulletin. As a sportsman people should be mindful of the resource and should be ethical when it comes to harvest. Like you said this isn’t a law so people really should be happy it stays that way. We are lucky to not live in the land of 10,000 fishing regulations or up in Oh Canada! No one is advocating for you to keep a 11 inch fish when fishing that deep. 11 inch fish are a dime a dozen and get eaten by bigger fish and birds all the time. Should a guy keep 14-15” fish when fishing that deep even though they might not have the bragging potential back at the cleaning station? Ethically yes, but you can do whatever you want. You should also be keeping the spawners too when fishing that deep. Why waste a good fillet! In my ethical opinion I would not be practicing catch and release fishing in deep water after catching my limit because it is wasteful. [/QUOTE]
