As far as giving him credit I also don't see where credit is due. By
odd chance they trapped a GBFT ib their fishing gear and killed a fish
that they shouldn't have. They are fortunate that they aren't getting
fined. Humpbacks get caught up in fishing gear all around Cape Cod
every year. Should the fisherman get credit for landing the big one? I
look at the situation as similar to hitting a ten point buck with your
truck. Would you deserve credit?t


Around here, if you hit a deer you get to keep it. You get you vehicle
trashed but you get to keep the fifty bucks worth of meat. Seems only
fair.
