I want to step back from my earlier post about making it illegal, in that if this is a traditional Belizean practice and only practiced by them, it probably isn't too detrimental even with today's technologies. But if fleets of American and Mexican fishing mega-yachts and the attendant fishing toys they have on board ever show up for these tournaments, decimation could easily occur. Amanda's point is well taken.


I hope that someday we can put aside our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.
