- Just because something is legal don't mean its morally right to do it.

I would bet that if asked the large majority of fisherman on BWE would not kill a baby thresher shark. - Even though it may be legal to do so.

Given the scrutiny that all Kalifornia Fisherman are under by exploitive eco-terrorists. ie. mlpa proponents we need to be cautious how we portray ourselves publicly.
-I don't think its fair - but its the way it is - like it or not.

Thresher Sharks are a Hotbed issue given how little known about their biology and behavioral ecology. When you kill and hold up a baby thresher by the tail for the camera it doesn't go over well with a lot of people.

-If you held up a 5 lb. rat yellowtail you would catch flack as well.
Even though it is legal to do so....
