[QUOTE="bobberboy, post: 367423, member: 1417"] But isn't the debate here whether it's ethical - or not - to be wasting game fish by bashing them on the head and leaving them to float away? The question of whether the muskies are eating other game fish isn't relevant. In my state (MN) a lot of money is spent on supporting the walleye population. I don't have the facts but I wouldn't be surprised if the money spent to support the walleye population is equal to all other species combined. I don't fish walleyes and so I don't really care but others do and I have to accept that as being a part of the fishing community. If I owned the world the lakes would be stocked with #6 largemouth bass but I don't and they aren't. My state DNR makes decisions based on a variety of factors including providing a sport fishery for a variety of interests. Whether I personally agree doesn't matter. It is what it is. Not agreeing however does not give me the right to bash the fish I'm not interested in. [/QUOTE]
