Very subtle BR. I don't want this to get 'all political' and I both shoot and fish (used to hunt until I was criminalised for taking my lurcher across the fields to catch the odd hare).
We, as anglers, have to remember that the stress factor is in the playing of the fish, and perhaps keeping it in the keep net, not the knock on the head.
Whenever I fish, be it lure fishing or stalking chub I am 'hunting' with rod and line. Stalking fish from the riverbank is just like stalking deer in the hedgerows, neither makes me feel morally superior than the other.
John,
Thanks for the comment - no problem with different opinions, it makes life all the more interesting.
And yes to all, there should have been more options. But it goes to show what I said at the start about the great diversity of the people on this site.
Thanks.
