No I think it bites also! Would not think it was that big a deal with the money we all pay for license and WMA fees and such.
and moving my Bigfoot posts to a locked forum. LOL Buncha Nazi's and the guy over the board was a butthead
Hacks me off too. They dang near killed it when they changed the swap/sell reply rules, then moderated it to death and finally deathed it to death. The forum was about the only way the people could interact with the MDWFP and feel like they were actually listening. All the complicated questions were actually addressed and if ya wanted to, you could tell 'em they was being stewpit. Course, they kept on being stewpit, but at least you could call 'em on it.
Totally different here since the moderator is scared of us and the criminals are running the assylum.

LUNATICS, get yo story straight WB
Hello Roost, meet chickens.
Cluck!

It's really too bad that a few irresponsible folks had to ruin it for all of us. At least they are still publishing weekly fishing reports and are still answering a few moderator approved questions.
cockadoodledoooooo
If I understand this correctly, the site was/is a government run/controlled site. What else did you gewgers expect!!!!
Anything that seems to be workin that they can't tax you on, they over-regulate it out of existence. As my 10 year old granddaughter would say - "Duh".
When we want a Yankee's opinion, we'll beat it out of ya JD. Now pipe down while the grown ups talk. Bwahahahahaha.

Yes Sir, Mr. WB, Sir. (I think I just got my peepee spanked)....but it didn't change my opnion of government overgrgulating everything from your rights to fish a public stream to, well................just about everythig else.
with ya JD
What exactly was the problem that it was so bad that they had to close all the forums? I felt i got a lot of useful info off the board, and i loved hearing about other people's experiences fishing--especially, that it was from local people. Man, although i never have had the chance, i loved reading about, for instance, folks catching (real) stripers down at Ross Barnett. With that said, whatever happened to the wipers (hybrid bass) that used to be in Sardis (i saw the state record came out of there)?
thought it was a good thing. never thought anyone was way out of line . guess the folks had very thin skin .
These guys are trying to recreate the site...
Mississippi Hunting and Fishing Forums
I didn't read the site, but if these guys can resurect it, I'd donate a little just to put it back in their face.
I have asked some of the game wardens about the hybrids that were stocked in Sardis, I think they were also stocked at Enid or maybe even all of the Big 4 Reservoirs up here, they said that first off hybrids are generally sterile and since they weren't reproducing they all either got caught, floated down the spillway or died of natural causes eventually. As for not restocking them, I think they say that they are expensive(having to restock them on a yearly basis), harder to get them to survive(especially in the Summer, and that there is a lack of angler interest in catching them. I have to personally disagree with that, I for one would love the chance to catch some hybrid bass while I am in school up here at Ole Miss. I think there would be plenty of others that would like to target them as well, they can put up quite a fight and are very sporting. They should survive quite well in the reservoirs up here (at least Enid, Grenada and Sardis) because there is enough deep water for them to cool off in the hotter months. If they can thrive at Ross Barnett, the sea runs, then hybrids ought to be able to make it up here.
They claim budget cuts as the reason...Quote:
