RE: Fishing Licensing Exams?
Several issues come to mind.
Cultural differences are a factor. I'll be enjoying my day fishing when a beat up old van pulls up and several loud people jump out asking if the fish are biting. They fan out, to return grumbling in some gutteral language that I don't understand. They jump into the van and take off. When I walk around the corner I see the empty wrappers and coffee cups laying on the ground. The big v hull comes planning down the river throwing a wake that threatens to sink the kayaks, canoes and inflatables. They cut the egine and cruise into the sand at the bottom of the canoe launch ramp. they also cut across me and my buddies line. They finally pack up and leave wasting far too much of everyone elses time. The worst I've seen is the long neck of a swan dragging on the ground. Tell me any man could be that ignorant not to know that he was shooting such a majestic not to mention a protected species. For every person that fits these descriptions I've met several dozen people that are kind and helpful./ I guess when people take the situation too far there should be some way to enforce proper conservation ethics but what's being suggested is a my way or the highway approach. Over legislating a sport isn't the answer. The gang of rapers and pillagers will still do their worst regardless of licensing requirements. Enforcement is the only option. I think the key is being able to call for intervention and having it followed through in a timely manner. |
