Not ALL of them - you know I don't go up (or down) a creek without a paddle - or two oars!
Now - had I had a sail, I woulda been stylin, never a shortage of hot air to blow if I'm on board!
I like to think my skin is as thick as my skull.
TD's right though - I do like to dish it out, and unlike Lavaman - I understand selective harvest, and the benefit of thinning the herds (hoards?) on some lakes. Mantua's plethora of "stunted" Bluegill is one such lake - though I'm sure the pressure has increased from a decade ago.
Nobody needs to keep EVERY fish they catch, but if you're in a situation to keep and USE a catch properly, I don't feel it's something that ought to be looked down upon.There's limits set, and some fishery management relies on the limits that are set and governed.
And some of "us" could learn more of the benefits of a good filet knife and the healing powers of the Omega-3!
"Live Long and Prosper" - unless you're a plump juicy Bluegill - in which case "Die Well, and Fry Well"!
On that note - I pickup up a Mister Twister, and MUST say - it's got way MORE POWER (woof woof woof) than my Berkely Walmart buy - by FAR.
