>>''Turtles are not fish. The commission doesn't seem to recognize that. . .should not be lumped into a commercial fishing license.''
This guy does not understand the impetus behind listing turtles (in FL) or even ALL reptiles (e.g. CA) under a fishing, vs. hunting license.
It has nothing to do with biology.
It has everything to do with not needing to get a hunting license, which requires attending a hunter education class, which is only useful if you're hunting with a firearm, which most herp enthusiasts do not. ----- Chris McMartin
