[QUOTE="Pilchard, post: 5634007, member: 19427"] It’s an all release fishery. The only way to legally keep a tarpon(in FL) these days is with a kill tag which is issued under the assumption that you will weigh the fish in an effort to break a record. I’d make a bet that there are less than 20 people left fishing for tarpon records. I agree though, in spirit, with what you are saying. When I was a kid, releasing a snook was unheard of. Now, there is a grassroots movement to let them all go, even if they are within the slot during the limited season. I truly believe there is a cultural difference between those whose first love is hunting vs those who grew up in an area where fishing is more popular than hunting. I always laughed at my grandfather who would ask “is that a keeper?” no matter what it was that he caught on my boat. He also laughs at me when I tell him that if it was possible, I’d bring a deer back to life and let it go after I shot it. [/QUOTE]
