Sounds like a bunch of people makin excuses for not catchin keepers. Just like last year when there was a fifty page thread about knockin down the size limit to 10". Then people started gettin on the keepers and you didn't hear anymore about it.

Let them set a "trollin season". And then we'll see how the single pole guys feel when every Tom Dick and Harry is jig fishin the same stuff they are. A season would do nothing more than turn trollers into jiggers when "trollin season" is closed. People are gonna go fishin period no matter what's in "season".
