I just don't see how auto fishing with minnows is gonna work on Conway with the new length limit. I suppose that yo yo's could be rigged or hung so the fish are not pulled out of the water and if a reg was added so that only allow live baits used were to be slicks, gold fish, carp, or dead bait, it would basically eliminate the small crappie bite. I suppose the second problem is not checking them according to regulation.

I do have a problem with limb hooks and trot lines not being pulled up when they are finished being used. They are a danger to boat traffic. I imagine some people put out more than they can remember the places they hung them.

I do think it is basically up to us to police our own ranks before someone rolls in and does it for us in a manner that none of us like. I have always been for policing our own ranks whether it is fishing, hunting, living in a neighborhood and even within our own family. When people do not stand against what is wrong within their own ranks, you get what is happening at other places and the good end up lumped together with the few bad.
