Agreed. That place will continue to be a zoo with all the "media" it gets now a days. I have no problem fishing amongst other "regulars" who can fish in somewhat close quarters without problem, but there are plenty of people there now that can really make you mad.

A family member of mine (great great uncle?) got a 63 on a brown gibbs pencil sometime in the 1960s I believe. Doubt it was ever "officially" weighed in. Bet it fed the family for a long time though. Evidently brown was the go go to color back then due to the abundance of whiting. Still have some of the old school gibbs pencils in brown, but I have repainted/repaired some and fish them now
