out of all the people that fish there only a select few are C & R ing. and the fact that the minimum length is only 8 inches doesn't help either. Went there again, and the fishing is great. caught 5 and released 4. One was hooked in the stomach. poor thing.
Ya..No need to put bleeders back in the water.
Not that stupid when you consider the fact that "Any Other Fish" that die actually feed the ecosystem. Any Other Fish's chance of surviving after you release it are far greater than a fish after you kill it. I say kill all the hatchery and invasive/non-native fish you want. But when you start hittin streams, and rivers, or oceans, angling for/around fish that are native to the water you are fishing, the "kill it if it bleeds" or "catch and kill" stuff is non-sense.true true:clap:
some states i hear have a law that goes somewhere along the lines of, if you caught a fish(trout) and it will die or not survive you keep it. period.:clap:
... because catching and releasing trout or any other fish for that fact, when after you release will die.. thats just stupid... that should be writen - catch and kill
I was unclear the difference between Char and Trout. It looks like both a Brook Trout and Bull Trout are Char while the Brown is in fact actually a trout, but in another Genus (Salmo). So from my 5 minutes on wikipedia browns are a European/Asian fish while the brookies are native to the east coast. Are there other non-native fish in Oregon?Whats there to explain? They are introduced species of Char. Introduced "Brook Trout" almost single handedly decimated the population of Native Bull Trout in Crater Lake National Park.
According to the wikipedia article I didn't. It could it be wrong? Anyway thanks for the info.Noah, you got Bull and Brown mixed up in the first sentence. And, according to the Man, Largemouth, Smallmouth, and Striped Bass are introduced. As well as Bluegill, Black Crappie, Channel Cats, Walleye, Yellow Perch, Shad, etc etc...on and on. Sorry if I sounded like a dill wipe when I said "whats there to explain"....
PDXKush, we know for sure you didn't write that! :naughty:No way would YOU say "their table delicacy is unsurpassed"!:lol::lol:
