The person who said this is on your side Kev, no matter how tongue in cheek it was, a ridiculous statement is a ridiculous statement.
Fact is, environmental issues aren't going away any time soon. I'm trying to be devil's advocate as I have an interest in both rec fishing and the environment. And I feel that all rec fishers should be more green than not. I stand corrected though, given the pasting I have received. Its interesting times indeed. Lets see how ausfishers react when the snapper bag limit goes to 2 fish above 45cm because they're overfished by rec fishers! Then we may see some concessions for MPA's - or maybe not? Who knows? Time will tell.
Good fishing to you all!
