They had a large new crop of wardens come through this year. Manpower patrolling these areas is the only way to enforce limits. But these limits are made to accommodate the higher fishing pressure. There is nothing WRONG with taking your limit 365 days a year. It is LEGAL. If it's hurting the populations, the biologists will adjust it. I don't think these lakes are going to be fished dry.... But if they do run out of fish,,, WE CAN ALL BLAME IT ON SPECK!!!

But you might have been born in January 195(6), which would eliminate YOU this year. I agree that no matter what year you were born, you're definitely Odd!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I remember 50.

The striped bass they are talking about is the much smaller cousin the white bass. There are no actual striped bass or hybrids in Sardis.

Eagle, I ain't trying to start no fight with you, but we are on opposites ends of this.

"THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH M.D.W.F.P . WARDENS TO POLICE THE MASSES"

Urgh. When I see somebody doing something "wrong", I usually have no choice but to say or do something about it. I get in trouble for it, but I am either unable or unwilling to resist the urge. Mind that I didn't say "illegal." I don't care if I ever do anything that's legal as long as I don't do anything that's "wrong." I fully believe that we, the masses, need very little policing that we cannot do among ourselves. We are always present, and we are always accountable.

"NO WAY TO REGULATE THE UNWILLING ."

Then who are we going to regulate? The only possible answer is to regulate those who need no regulating. This is exactly my point. There is no reason for me to have to put up with a policeman checking me to see if I have too many fish or too short of a fish when I'm not going to keep too many fish or too short of a fish. It is an intrusion that is both unwarranted and useless.

As I said, this is just my opinion on it, and I don't expect everyone, or anyone, to agree with me. I can't help but wish everyone would though. It would be nice to taste freedom at least once before I die.
