I understand the commissions' philosophy of creating opportunity, but you are not going to get recreational opportunity. You are already getting that. What you are going to get is harvest opportunity. The people that are out there already have recreational opportunity.

The whole state is open to bow fishermen and they harvest lots of fish. Our big concern is the message we're sending to catfish fishermen. We're de-valuing that animal to them.Phil Durocher
