Re: Fluke survey on hook size from fish and game.

This survey is an attempt to support someone's theory that using larger hooks will save more fish by decreasing mortality. My comments were directed toward reducing the size limits so those deeply hooked 17 inch fish would not be wasted. My other suggestion was to increase the hook sizes even more, to 10/0 so no fish are ever deeply hooked or caught thereby reducing mortality by 100%. No fish caught means no dead fish. Problem solved.
