BAN LIVE? Ban live and Dead. you know they go post up on the edge of the ship channel with em and pull some 8 lber out. |
I could not agree with you more!!!!!!!!!!
The trout killing would not be near what it is if live bait is banned. The true trophy trout fisherman that fishes lures will have the respect for the big fish to try and keep it alive. The majority of the big trout caught this time of year are caught and killed by the people fishing live bait. The tournaments should either have two different divisions or ban live bait. The spectacular tournament banned wade fishing but allowed live bait. This is crazy, a tournament should be about skill and ability not who can throw an anchor and let a croaker swim around their boat. It takes a skilled angler to catch fish on lures, weather wading or in a boat. Anyone can throw an anchor hook and a croaker and sit back with their fingers crossed. You want to see fewer anglers on the lake, ban live bait and see how many people will get out there this time of year and grind it out. I would like to see the results for the tournament today listing what each fish was caught on. I bet it would be pretty interesting.
Bruce, hell of a fish and thanks for representing true anglers well!!! SAVE THE CROAKERS; THROW A LURE |
I agree 100%.....Live bait should not be allowed in any tournament ...Even STAR.....Winners should have some kind of skills not soaking a Croaker on bottom!!!!
|
I second that...

I fish artificials...however when my son is with me (8) he throws live shrimp. I agree as far as banning organic bait for tournament.

The best fisherman never bet Croaker soakers......Thats just fact..... Last two Tournaments Croaker Soaking won... |
One thing that pissed me off a little more about the whole topic is the book Trout Masters. The book only has 3 good chapters and they happen to be on big lake anglers. I did enjoy reading these chapters but the rest of the book is dedicated to *%^#ing croaker soakers. To label these people as Trout Masters is a insult to the true angles of the book. I am gald this thread got started because I have been needing to vent on this topic for a while.

Let me see if I got this right....You enter a tournament, knowing the rules....you decide to fish with artificals....you constantly get beat by folks who decide to fish differently than you....so, as a result, you belittle the winners and want all future tournament rules to be changed to conform to your method of fishing so that you'll have a better chance to win....!! Almost sounds like Obama's policies to redistribute the wealth.......Ain't this a Great Country!!!

Bunch of crybabies. If you are really in it "for the trout" then ban tournaments. You guys are in stage 3 which is still a rookie. When you get to stage 4 there won't be stupid threads like this.
|
Sounds like a bunch of elitists to me. If you don't like the tourney rules don't fish it. If it is legal why complain? Work to change the rules.
Whats even more hypocritical is ya'll get off on posting pictures of all the juvenile trout you catch, bragging on your bag limits and then you get your panties in a wad when someone uses live bait to catch a couple of big trout. |

Fortunately, the best will not always win,,sometimes luck will prevail over skill...and personally, I'd much rather listen to someone boast over how "lucky" he was, as opposed to how "good he is"...!!! I tend to agree with Salty,,,I haven't fished any tournaments,except STAR, for years because I don't agree with some of the rules....this is my personal decision, and I certainly wouldn't condemn the eventual winners because I chose not to participate..!! No more than you should downgrade their "win" because of their method of fishing ...
