Anglers Put a New Spin on Conservation with "Toss Back Tuesday"
"Photos, Not Fillets" Say Long Beach Anglers
LONG BEACH, Calif. - Lately, Conservationists and fishermen have spent considerable time and energy yelling at each other. Two advocates for ethical angling think they may have found some middle ground and a new way to unite those respective camps under the banner of their common love for fishing.
Don Ashley from Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach has partnered with Tom Raftican from The Sportfishing Conservancy to implement "Toss Back Tuesday." On Tuesday, May 18th, at a cost of $45 per person, anglers are invited to fish the Toronado out of Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach at 7:00 A.M., on which every fish caught will be "tossed back."
