MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
I see some truth in this post. mammals get treated better than fish. white people better than colored. males better than females. animals worse than people. not sure if insects are superior to plants but they both get no rights.someday everyone and everything will be treated equal...poor little fish.... I get it ccc.
Baiting is about as un-fair chase as you can get. Montana is built on the values of fair chase and I will advocate for keeping it that way the rest of my life. If you don’t like it go back to your home state. Harder to be “successful” when you can’t bait isn’t it? Lol
.and once again..no way in hell we would allow certain technologies to harvest deer and elk..thank god..but for fish?..Can you be a bit more specific on what technology? Keeping in mind that comparing deer or elk to fish, is like comparing railroads to roads built for cars. In either case, they are worlds apart, as in "No way would we allow railroads to operate in the same manner as we allow car traffic to operate".
I personally feel that as sportsmen we should never participate in in fighting of any kind, when the activity in question is done legally. Just because it doesn't interest you personally doesn't mean it doesn't have its place. Baiting bears for example, is one of the most effective ways to successfully target mature bears. I don't have any interest in it, and it's not legal in my state, but I understand it's use where legal. As far as anti hunting/trapping initiatives are concerned it's a death by 1,000 cuts. The more we cut our selves the easier we make it for special interest groups like Footloose, HSUS, PETA, Wildlife Defense League etc to gain traction.

Agreed...to a point. Just because an activity is legal does not necessarily mean everyone (even a majority) believes it to be ethical or qualify as fair chase.
How about catch and release snagging of paddlefish. Whiskey Tango.............
