Catch and Release Hurts our Quality of Life

I was thinking the average Catch and Release fisherman isn't doing
anything to stop this because they simply do not care about eating

rampant. I anglers were forced to eat the fish they caught there'd be
a lot less apathy, IMO.

Sad thing when you can not eat the fish in the last wilderness in this
country.
