Seems fair to me that single poling should be outlawed when the fish are shallow in the wood and bushes IF trolling has a season imposed on it. Lots of big females are taken by single polers when they move to the bank to spawn.

Maybe they should just outlaw the females that are full of eggs. Keep the males during those times when the spring harvest contains the biggest females.

In reality, I doubt they ever limit a technique during any part of the season.

I don't spider rig. They need to outlaw that. I also don't use trot lines. They should outlaw that. Don't like casting for them. Ban that. I never use minnows. Outlaw their use. I pull cranks. Leave that alone. I Like tightlining jigs. Let that continue. I can't afford a guide. Put an end to guiding. If you don't fish the way I like you are doing it wrong and should be forced to quit.

You get the idea??

B.A.S.S. started putting referees in the boats so the fish could be returned to the water immediately. Studies showed
that when a male bass was taken off the bed he was guarding for 5 minutes, 50 percent of the eggs or fry would be
lost. I like the way things are being handled. We are having good years, bad years, with some mediocre years in between.
It's way better than a lake full of little bug eyed fish with a trophy every year or two.

OR, We could just outlaw crappie fishing, period....Then we would not have all this crap to talk about...No man should fault another for abiding by the law, and using whatever legal method he likes...Go fishing.keep what you need...release the rest...Let MDWFP do their job..

Nothing wrong with having a analytical discussion about this . Some would agree that the best interest of the big 4 , may take a back seat to what's best for the "economy " around the lakes. What exactly is their job ? When was the last time your fish were checked ? I've been fishing these lakes for 30 years and only been checked a few times . Have I just fell thru the cracks ? Do you guys get checked much ? Do these world class lakes not generate enough income to provide protection?

I've been checked 5 times this year.two on Sardis..two on Enid...during the week .fifth time was on Saturday at Sardis...Each time, I thank them for doing their job.
