Thread: Has anyone else seen this?

Wow ..... They really hammered him.

Anyone know what illegal culling is?

Yeah makes a lot more sense now. Not the first time a guide has been ticketed on the lake. I imagine illegal culling is releasing fish for a larger one after you have had them in livewell. Culling is only allowed in sanctioned bass fishing tourney's.

I will just put this out here before this takes off. I reviewed all the rules. This post does not break any rules right now but it could very easily get there. The paper looks like it is a public knowledge piece of information and there are lessons to learn here. But the first mention of someone's name or first bit of negativity towards anyone will result in a deletion of this post. Please keep this under control and friendly. This is my judgement of what I see happening here. Please show respect and we can keep on with conversation. Thanks.

Well Put DKB23 You definetly are a great moderator!! It is in everyones best interest in the fishing community to make sure things likes this are not overlooked. We have to protect our fisheries for our future generations. I can tell you had some great input on this before posting this warning good job on doing your homework. Cant wait to share a seat in the boat with you again! Maybe we can even get those boys of yours to join us! Keep up the good work

Yep, seen it last week.

The law is the law and I'm not taking sides but, Snagging carp. Come on. I don't think they are a gamefish, there is four billion of them and I'd almost bet they were released after the fight. Don't know for sure but I'm guessing the snagging accessory is just a jigging spoon. I'm all for conservation and creel limits but I don't see anything wrong with snagging a 30# carp.
OK Let the begin.

I agree with old goat in regards to the carp. I understand rules are rules also. I have been out with this guide and others that post regularly on this site, and have never seen a guide including him try to keep extra fish. I'm not sure I understand how one would get a ticket for culling fish, unless that guide was set up by client or was being followed around by the officer on the lake. I'm not trying to stick up for him, just trying to understand the situation a little better.
