Ooooh, you haven't gotten under my skin. And this is the first time that you have actually stated something correct, it is pretty simple......

Never choose an argument with an unarmed individual. In another way of saying it, and using your own words against you, in your original post you stated and I quote, "Just seems that when things don't go our way we are awful quick to blame another type of sportsman."

So, in post #3, you stated in a return post to MRDUX and quote, "I bet there's a TON of more gill hooked sport fish that go belly up after being released than what few the bowfisherman poke."
So, what is your intent in calling out against blaming other sportsman, but you completely did it yourself in your own thread that you started all by yourself?? I believe where I was raised right here in Western KY, that is stated as " ain't you the pot callin' the kettle black."

Then, in a double post of #8 & 9, you got your tity whities in a bind because you got called out, so you decided to storm off and pout...... But then, less than an hour later, you just had to come back and start up again with trying to make a joke about a misspelled lake name. Boy oh boy, you got me there!!!!!! LMBO!!!!!!!

Yep, I asked for it to be closed because I foreseen the future, I looked into my crystal ball ( everybody knows I am a gypsy ), and predicted that you would come back. In post #18, you kept the same ramble about the commercial fishermen and the bow fishermen are the ONLY people doing anything at all to slow the asian carp invasion. You sir are again incorrect, and need to get your information prior to making such outlandish statements. Additional outlandish statements referring to the phenomenal gills, bream and redear fishing the last few years is little hard to swallow as well. I have several friends that are guides, and serious gill/redear fisherman, that last year and this year have been some of the worst years for these fish. Now, I am not going to get into the specifics on this because this would arm you with free information for you to use haphazardly somewhere else.
In conclusion, I have stated more than once that if you have something that is worthy, by all means post it. But don't try to crawl away or make an invalid attempt to make fun of someone because you got caught without all the facts, or were called on the carpet. Brother, I got some real thick skin, and most of these guys know I am pretty straight forward, and for the most part a pretty good guy as I call many my friends. But you sir, one minute your calm, and the next your trying to prove something that you have know idea about. So, where is your evidence? Facts? And you were right again in your opening line in the original post, that makes 2 correct statements now, that sometimes get a lil off kilter on some topics.
I hope that in the future we can share more civil but more educational conversations that actually pertain to what all of our passion is, and that is catching some dandy slobber knockers in the very near future.
