Jim, to me, the "mark of a man" will NEVER be based on his ability to catch fish. If that's how you measure people, kudos to you my friend....That's extremely LOW on my list of giving respect to others. Not sure how you interpreted that ??? Now someone making a snide remark at someone's fish who can't even defend himself...falls quite short of gaining my respect, and can at times,, ignite my spark.

...and Jim, the few people that I do fish with from this site only talk bad about me behind my back, so in my own little perfect world, I'm a good guy.
Bloocrab, do you even read your own posts?


"Jim, to me, the "mark of a man" will NEVER be based on his ability to catch fish"

Interesting, because several of your posts ended with a taunt about "if you catch a 60, can I go fishing with you, please", or something like that.

"If that's how you measure people, kudos to you my friend...."

Again, you are the one who kept mentioning whether or not one has caught a 60, not me. Don't put your inane opinions on me, OK?

Bloo, the funny thing is that I think I agree with you on this issue (I keep the occasional fish for the grill). But unlike you, I listen to those who disagree with me to see if I can learn something, I don't immediately insult them.
