Well i hope this counts as fishing but, i hate it.Just posted this to make eople more aware of whats goin on and how they can stop it. im watching shark week right now(its what i live for before i go back to school) and they showed this site where they have a petition that can stop shark finning. Ihope people go here and help to stop it. Oneof my dreams is to catch a big shark when i grow up. Heres the link

If you havent, watch the documentary Shark Water.
It's in parts on youtube.
The docu also has some links to websites that are all about shark conservation..

Keep sharks in the ocean, not in soup.
 
i agree 100% on the finning but do you guys have a problem with someone who kills the shark for food and uses the whole fish not just the fin?
 
Its so stupid people do this it really kills me but as far as im concerned situations like this calls for active protest like people standing on docks.

i dont see why people would have a problem with that as long as its legal, but i would never kill a shark... i dont like shark meat and i wouldnt want to kill a shark anyway... i like them too much.
 
i only ask because i shark fish all the time i believe its a very enjoyable sport and i do it legally but rarely do i keep them.. 95% are revived and released after i catch them but the ones that either die before i land them or are the right species and size get eaten.. i quite enjoy shark meat and never kill any fish for no reason.. all fish i kill are used
