How many of us can say we've gotten two 40lb. bass in one trip?
How many can say we've gotten PLENTY of shorts?
If you allow poaching scumbags to continue to over-limit on short fish EVERY time they go out, they will definitely do more damage than those of us who are lucky enough to get two 40 lbers.

If nothing is done, the poachers will continue to take many more shorts and will have a more immediate effect of the fish population.
I think we all know where do those 40 lb. fish come from?

For the record, I only keep a few fish each year out of the ones that I do catch. I practice C&R and take strides to revive ANY fish that may be stressed by the encounter.
I will TRY to explain the rules to those I see breaking them, and instruct youngsters and rookies as to the "rules of the road" when fishing.

As they say :"Ignorance of the law is no excuse!"
