Thread: I Think This May Be The Last Straw

I have always defended the the legal use of yo-yos. I grew up running them with my grandpa and hate the thought of them being outlawed due to laziness and lack of respect for the wildlife and the laws that protect it. Over the years I have battled abandoned limb lines, yo-yos, and trotlines while trying to fish. They get wrapped around your poles, hooks in your boat seats, lines in your trolling motor, your outboard. I cant even count all of the dead fish that I have removed from these abandoned lines, not to mention all of the nails and rebar that gets driven into trees and stumps to hang them from. Yet I have always felt that enforcement was the answer. After all, why should everybody suffer because of a few bad apples? Unfortunately, I am beginning to think that this is never going to happen. It just seems to me like the bad apples are in the vast majority nowadays. I was cruising across the lake today and this is what I saw:Hadn't been dead more than a couple of hours. What a waste!
Not trying to get another yoyo debate going, just wanting to vent.
