It’s sad . When the guy yesterday told me he hadn’t thought that , that one fish he kept that day could have helped the recovery of the fish population , I didn’t realized that a lot of them don’t understand how a resource of this size can be wiped out in a short period of time .
He had told me one of the other guys told him he saw lots of fish on his electronics on the bottom of the lake but they wouldn’t bite .
I think he was looking at moss .
I didn’t find any on my Eagle but I did see a lot of moss .
