Peta, Peta, Peta,

Why do we all give Peta the atytention when there are at least 4 groups right now in a coastwide effort to leave us all fishing on one oeir in each state. Yes Peta get s some press on their whacked out programs like fishn
empathy but it is darn frustration when most serious anglers mistakenkly think Peta is the devil in our sport. Truth is Peta would not make the top ten list of groups that threaten our access in slaty environments. Their Press is just easier to read. Shame on us.

I'm going to start "sight casting" for cucumbers (from my garden). I wonder if they will put up a good fight (I hear the older ones are kind of tough)

I slaughtered several zucchini's from my garden last night, skinned them alive I did. My adrenaline was so high after that, I ended the life of a couple of cucumbers and a handful of greenbeans. God, what a rampage I was on. They deserved it!

I like to s l o w l y Torture my lettuce my pulling off one leave at a time.

and I eat my grapes one at a time, right in front of the whole bunch, and ask them who wants to be next.

I won't even tell you how I peel my bananas.....after all this is supposed to be a Kid Friendly site.

OK, what I want to know now is, who's going to make their legal name "striped-bass.com"?

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.

OMG Peta is ridiculous, but that's their M.O. It's all flash in order to get the press and it works... damn the press buying into their shananigans...

A friend of mine said that she thought it was cruel to hook a fish in the mouth, and gave me the old "how would like it somebody hooked you in the mouth" crap and I told her that the jaws of a fish are extremely strong and their jaws are the only way they hunt. If you must compare it to a human, which is stupid, but let's say you did, hooking a fish's jaw would be like hooking a human's arms or legs....
