Share a Lunker is supposed to provide larger fish and allow the trophies to live out happy lives until death do we part. <SNIP>
*bump*
Just goes to show how much I knew about Share a Lunker. Been living here in Texas for 5 years and I have seen the links at TPWD directing one to this program but never looked. I had always presumed this was program to encourage catch and release of trophy fish. Like "Share a Lunker with other fisherman" so they can also catch it. Not so I guess but rather a brood fish collection program.
If this applied to fish that were caught, tagged, and released by fisherman, the news might well suggest it is wise to harvest 10 lb fish instead of releasing them at least in the waters where the findings support the decline of released fish.
