Do you consider yourself a "conservationist"? If so, what do you do to conserve our resource?

There are those that preach conservation and call themselves a "conservationist", yet, everything they catch goes to the electric knife. That's your choice but you can't be both.

I like to think I do my part in slowing coastal erosion by paddling around in my kayak.
