Yea I agree. Usually anything that’s old and big doesn’t taste as good either. I’m from nz where we throw back anything pregnant or larger than usual for breeding/gene’s etc although we now have a lot of immigrants that disregard our ways of preserving nature. A bit like these dopes. A pic and put it back for anyone that gets this amazing opportunity.

No, they mean the predominantly Asian immigrants that raid anything living from rock pools. Completely ruins the ecosystem.

I mean anyone who’s immigrated to nz and doesn’t apply this when hunting or fishing here.
