I'm glad I missed the deleted thread.

Finding someone fishing my spot doesn't bother me much because there's always somewhere else to go. I even met someone from this site who was really nice when I was fishing one of "my" spots and realized it was also "his" spot, probably for longer than I had fished it.

What brings out the worst in me is people who don't respect the fish or the area they fish. Last night, I was fishing the canal with a buddy and we split up for a while. I ended up within earshot of a couple of loud younger guys who were talking about how one was going to keep a short fish until the Coast Guard showed up and measured it and made him return it to the water. I didn't realize the Coasties measured fish at the canal? Anyways, I moved further away and when I went back by their location later, I picked up a bunch of plastic bags, hook packages and a water bottle. For cryin' out loud, take it with you or put it in a trash can. It's not like you're having to carry 50 pound of crap back to your car.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
