The ignorance of this group is unbelievable. Ask any fisherman (or woman) if fish are far removed from their daily lives and they would laugh. I know more about the fish I pursue than I do my 3 nieces, and no one is a greater champion of fish habitat and stream, lake and ocean protection than angler's groups. Further, fish have no associative nerve therefore they feel no pain, making catch-and-release fishing an effective form of angling that also protects fisheries. Maybe, someday, PETA will employ the science community to back up their claims and instead of alienating millions, attempt to enlist their help to accomplish real progress in the protection of some species. Right now, all they do, much like the democratic party, is make the 'red-staters' cringe at their simple-minded, 'don't hurt animals', elitist, super-model-endorsed demagoguery.
