So why can't you act like this which is way more mature and sportsman like when they do kill your bite or cut "your drift" off.

I never thought I would see more pathetic then the horn porn "trophy" deer hunters. I would rather take my son out and catch 50 12" trout and see 5 does each time out than catch a 7lb trout and a 10 point buck once in a while. We have lost sight of the most important aspect of the outdoors these days: having fun and teaching the next generation proper values.
Thank God I live on the east side and don't have to deal with

Elite series this week on Toledo... Watch what kind of weights they bring in. Toledo however is actually doing some what decent for big fish. More and more people releasing. Leave our bass out of this! Next they going to ruin our trophy bass lol

I think a lot could have to do with fish being concentrated along with bait concentrated allowing fish to fatten up. With the water levels back to normal and the exposed land having fresh vegetation and ground critters all the more reason for Toledo to have a boom. Along with a huge decrease in fishing pressure if any at all at some points. I feel that bass fishing has become an electronics sport more or less. Give them fellas a map and an old school hummingbird buzzer on new lakes and see what the weight limits are then.

If you want a trophy Lake make the limit 50per person.
.in 5years the lake record would be shattered

Define the word trophy? Or even better, a successful trip? I've had my most successful trips in the woods and the water when I didn't kill or catch my limit. Life is way to short to give a crap about 10 fish or a 2 lb difference of a fish. Don't you have a new born? I know my son is the most important thing in my world. Not the size or limit of fish. Grow up.

Dude its not about just size....its about over population which in time will cause problems for our fisheries
...I don't fish for big trout but maybe 2 months a year and could care a less about them..I don't eat them...I don't keep them
But they are part of our estuary and now we have a problem with the lack of size decrease ....this is from too many trout

Just like your does...you have to take out s given number of trout....we are not taking that number out


I'm for 25 trout....I don't care If I catch all 12inchers....but I do know that with a 25 trout limit you will have bigger fish showing up




You know that saying your dad told you...if its not broke don't fix it

A "successful" trip to W is catching a limit before 8:00 am and having somebody "cut his drift" in the process so he can come back here and tell us all about how he ran figure 8's around 2/3 of the lake.

[Smoke Shack BBQ]

Then you need to let at least ten boats follow your drifts so the pilgrims can catch their limits and level out the population in the lake. They catch the dinks, cause 99% can't catch 15 fish, and you get to make a possative impact in more ways than one. You can be the big lake hero. Get you a cape and everything.

Looks like someone already headed to banned camp, not who I thought it was going to be though. Anyway I feel like W could be fighting a loosing battle but he seems willing to fight for what he believes in. to me it seems like some valid points are being made. I can't catch a limit every trip, I am one of those guys. But still I enjoy being on the water as much as all you guys.

No sure why he was ban....I hope it was not just because of his response...because it was true..

The guy made a great point and I hope he was not ban for that

[Top Dawg]

And there you have it.

[ckinchen]

This thread was going in the right direction, without personal attacks which is all that I asked, thank you.

As far as the banned issue, if you really want to know send me a PM (I may answer you and I may not, really it is not your concern) and stop questioning me in the open area or you can ALL join him. Go back through the thread and you will see there was a deleted post. That deleted post and what he said to me and about me is what got him banned. Then he followed up with multiple emails telling me his "feelings" about me. So yes he is gone. Salty so the post before I deleted it, if you want to PM him and he feels like responding then you can.

What I have learned is that most of you do not respect or appreciate me. I never wanted to spend as much time dealing with this site as I now have to spend. Yesterday when this mess started it caused me to be two hours late getting my family home. In short, I have had enough. I put my own money into keeping this site running and more time in this "project" than any of you can imagine. I did not deserve the first post that this person came after me about but then the second was way across the line. At the end of the day, SaltyCajun is a hobby and a hobby I am very tired of right now. I will ban anyone that does not respect me on my own bandwidth that I pay for. Think of it as being at work, you may like the boss but if you tell him to go XXXX himself then you’re gone.

Change this back towards the topic or I will lock the thread. I have to get real work done today which does not include babysitting all of you.

Which again for the record, I was not even fishing the big lake area when the limit changed, I was still fishing in Grand Isle at the time. I will support whatever the science shows once that work is done. 15 v/s 25 is not something that bothers me right now so don't think for one second I have a real opinion on it. I want there to be a great fishery for my grandchildren one day and support whatever that requires.

Signed, your office fishermen

I told my boss to go XXXX himself before it felt great, I'm still with the company.
As for respect towards you, we all have it Casey I understand why you get upset and rambunctious at times but don't think for one minute none of us do not respect you and what you have done with this site for one minute.
