Abolish Fishing?! They're Joking, Right?

When you think you have heard it all... you hear some people want to ban fishing. 

There are seriously people who think fish are on the level of humans. Witness the anti's who want to ban fishing.

In this video shared by 680 NEWS on Facebook, we see what happens when people who are uneducated about what fishing really is get together. They decide fishing just must be bad. They want to ban it, and they're trying to make the case that fish are comparable to people.

Maybe fish can go to college, hold a full-time job and lead an interesting conversation? Nope. Fish are meant to be eaten.

As anglers, we are on the forefront of conservation efforts to protect fish populations from over-fishing and pollution. Our licenses go to habitat management and fishing bag limits. The anti's just don't get it. Without anglers' money, fish populations would be doomed. Next time before these anti's decide to make signs, they should first research what fishing is really about.
