This will probably generate a whole lot of flack but I'll say it anyway. Between the early European immigrants and what came to be Americans, the native Americans have been cheated and killed, had their land stolen, their game animals massacred and treated as bad or worse than the slaves were. So with what little land and native rights they have left I am inclined to give them a pass. And as someone else pointed out, even with catch and release the shear numbers of todays musky sport fisherman as a whole are probably responsible for a lot of delayed mortality. So if we really want to be so protective of the resource, along with a catch to keep limit there should be a daily catch and release limit.
