Very Nice Walleye Caught by FM Pro Staff

[Hoffer]

It is kind of amusing when the subject of selective harvest or catch and release comes up. More often that not, it seems that the avid fisherman and true sportsman like canitbeluck may catch hundreds of fish and keep one nice keeper for the wall - maybe one or 2 of these fish in a lifetime. Then, you have the other side of the coin where a group of fisherman get on a school of walleyes - fish that are 5,6,7 pounds - breeding females and keep their limit. No pictures are taken, but these fish are kept to eat. This scenario happens all the time. I have 2 fish on my wall from years of fishing. I keep maybe a half dozen small walleyes a year if that. So, whats the bottome line?? I would rather see a picture of a nice trophy fish for the wall - something that is a lifetime fish - rather than hear about the guys who got on a group of walleyes and now their freezer is full of fish.
