Fishing Ethics

[Wiskers]

Shoot the A....hole Rednecks that get in line at the ramp , leave the vehicle to talk to someone down the bank. This happened last spring and the line was long at the ramp. After walking up to the truck and it was empty ,we pulled around to launch . The guys got upset and asked if we was in a hurry. Heck no we just got out before daylight at the ramp to wait on inconsiderate A..holes like them.:rolleyes:

I'm an ol'redneck but you & I would get along fine! :D That crap really chaps my fanny too and I ain't shy about let'm know either!

Hooker's rule is the "Golden Rule" Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. It should apply in fishing and life in general. It is the way my father taught me and I have taught my sons and grandsons. Hooker

11) Throw the trophy slabs back in the water and keep the smaller crappie under 12" for eating.

Of course trophy size depends on what part of the country you are fishing.

Great idea! I thought I was the only one who did it that way. Well, in Ohio anyway. Go south to Kentucky Lake, Weiss, wherever, it would be hard to keep anything some days if you followed that same rule, but the point is well taken. Everyone knows what a trophy slab is on whatever water they are fishing. Put those fish with the strong gene pool back in to give a chance for more slabs to be born.

Many limits are kept out of Talquin of 12 inch plus fish and it has never let us down and same goes for Logan Martin, Weiss and many other lakes I have fished. Lake Monroes size limit was 12inches until 2 years ago and it produces some slabs. Throwing them back might help some places, but not in the south.
