I,m not saying you,re wrong,for that very reason i dont fish commercials but the reason for net bans on pleasure fishing does,nt hold water (no pun intended)you will see more dead fish at certain commercials after a match,i,m talking about venues that are overstocked with undersized fish,that have matches on them most days where the fish are held upwards of 50- 100lb+ plus in each keepnet in shallow water esp. in summer then tipped into weigh nets-yeah thats fish welfare!Also match anglers pay less per peg fee per day (Although,granted,these anglers are probably more lucrative for fishery owners)than pleasure anglers but have more options i.e use of a keepnet,it smacks of double standards,i could go on but dont want to turn it it into a pissing contest,its just my 2pence worth,however.
