Thread: A lesson in sustainability

So I hadn't fished the home lake much as I have a camper at Shelbyville. So my partner Bobber head says hey let's go out Sunday night.
So we go it's slow but we have a good time we catch crappie and I catch a blue gill.
Hey you want to keep him Mike says yah he'll clean he is a good eater. We caught crappie from 3 inches to 14 inches every age group for a promising fishing future
So when it's all said and done we end up with 9 nice crappie and 2 bull blue gills All is good right. Well we get back to my house Hey Mike we cleaning them here or back at your place ? Response clean what ? The fish buddy the fish I LET THEM GO. You WHAT ! I let them go when you went to the truck. I let them go so they can grow we will catch them again
So first I was a little miffed but You know he is right We had our fun The fish went for a boat ride and they swim on to give us or the next guy the thrill of the THUMP Thanks Mike
