A sad fish story
Discovery news is reporting on a fascinating new study that has been conducted on photos of trophy fish photographs from Key West. When viewing the photos over time, you can see the dramatic results over fishing has on both fish population and overall size.

Key West Trophy Fish (1957)
This goes to show that the most significant conservation efforts can be achieved by individuals and their attitudes towards the environment. Practice catch and release and take only what you need from the land and the seas. If everyone could adopt this attitude, futurer generations will be able to catch some of the monsters like the ones in this photo.

That must have been the size of the fish Jesus fed the multitude.
Is that Hemingway in the goatee to the right in the photo? :0)
That is a rich photo.
Sadly, we’ll have to die off before we have a monster fish comeback.
