A few more guys like you can make all the difference,although you may want to keep the screaming to a minimumI find people very receptive and appreciative that i took a minute to help them out.Some of you "leveled","geared up" fashion consious elitists my want to give it a try

Most of what I said in the paragraph you highlighted was tongue in cheek, bro.

I would attempt to approach the fish tossers/kickers, "I doan have to get my feet wet, do I", HACKS with some level of respect. Pretty hard to respect those who have no respect for themslves as witnessed by their lack of respect for Sir Stripey.

Iffin ya don't want to gear up sose you can release fish properly and unharmed, then stay out of tha SURF!!! Either that or GET WET!! It's only saltwater for CRIPES SAKE!!! That's not elitist my mang, that's just the way it is. I could care less if any of the googs feelings get hurt, what about Morone Saxatilus ??

It looks like there is a fish lying in the sand. Schoolie? Bluefish?
I won't do that type of scene either. I don't do the dink scene as a primary target. I just don't get a thrill from small fish.

Be encouraging, not discouraging

Ok lmao my point went straight over your head mang...lemme try this again.
My suggestion that you may want to rethink the "screaming" thing wasn't to spare their feelings,it was to save you from a trip to the dentist for a denture fitting.It's easy to scream at someone on a computer but not so in the real world(online i'm 10 feet tall,the real world only 6'2") My other comments were more an attempt at getting more responses to the REAL problem with that pic,not the ugly sticks and sneakers but the fact that if we don't do something to get these people on board with proper C&R techniques the lean years of the past being revisited is a real possibility. Dat b aw i haf ta say mang,peace out

BassTracker would surely wrestle the man to ground, mount him until he submits, and then have his way with him to teach him a lesson...

Dood, are you saying that there's full grown "men" out there that doan know how to properly release a striper or blue ?

I agree with yer point in principle, but my comments were more to the ridiculousness of these guys thinking that they deserve to treat Striper any old which way they feel, or whatever's easiest, or without having to get their feet wet. I am quite sure that a majority of those cats know the right thing to do, just too stinkin LAZY or JAZZED up over some dinks to take the time to do the right thing.

In which case they would most assuredly be deserving of a full fledged !!

i think you are wrong here, BD. I doubt they have the slightest idea that they are doing anything wrong.

hell, you didn't even know how to un-hook a blue 3 months ago, right?

do ya think that could've been better said, like this?:

'i think, they don't have the slightest idea that they are doing anything wrong.'

difference of OPINION doesn't have to be wrong does it,

only different, eh mi amigo?

unless you are the undisputed authority on all OPINIONS .

I think we all think what is going on is wrong, it is also wrong to confront a total stranger and tell him/her what they are doing is wrong.

The EP's are usually just a phone call away, I know for a fact that they were in Charlestown that day because I was driving behind them. keep there number in your cell phone and call them if needed.
