What it's come to

[Down Deep Sportfishing]

Amazing that the love that drives many to do what they do day in and day out falls on deaf ears. The passion to put a few fares on a what few fish the powers to be have allowed us to catch and keep all in the name to help rebuild what has been destroyed by commercial interests. Call it as you see it. The limits imposed on the masses of rod and reel fishing are insane. Yet we played by the rules for decades as others shoveled the juveniles and excess back as fish food. Yet we take it on the chin ( to put it nicely) year in and year out. The pleasure we once shared amongst some of the best captains in the business, the days of paper charts and composite notebooks with hand drawn pictures of ranges with secret spots are all yesterday's news. The great captains of yesterday are rolling in their graves seeing where and what it's all come to. But remember this, its in our blood not in our pocket.
