Angry People scared of water and bass....

Fished well known spots on the back beach of CC this week; tons of small fish around from dusk well into the night... got really frustrated watching people (in waders) stand above the swash line, catch a schoolie, drag it up the beach 25ft, lay it in the sand, unhook it, walk back down and put it in the swash, holding it waiting for "the perfect wave" apparently, to release it... Finally lost it and said something about most of those fish dying; got the blank stare back...

People lack fortitude in the surf.. it wasnt big water, what happened to lipping and unhooking and fish and putting back in the water; all his fish were on storms, one single hook, should be a 2second release.... I understand on rocky shores with big water backing up for safety and unhooking, I do that, but comeon this was ridiculous; saw it happen with at least 2 other guys; one guy fumbled with a tape measure on bass that had to be 22".... the damn fish was out of the water for at least two of my casts, and then when I returned back that way an hour later they left their trash... people suck

I find that if, while you are fishing, there are many googans/idiots....you can quickly clear the beach and have it all to yourself if you follow my instructions.

1. Pick a nice comfortable fishing spot well in view of everyone...perhaps centered among the crowd.

2. Rig up your rod, whatever you have to do to prepare to fish.

3. When ready to fish, before making your first cast, strip naked to the bone and do the "naked, fishing on a public beach and I need a keeper before the police arrive" fish dance!

4. Most if not all of the folks around will leave you to your fishing spot....with the exception of the most ardent surfcasters....and obviously...they will know how to properly release fish!

5. One last thing....apply lots of sunscreen, especially to your private areas.....it can be dangerous out there!

I tried this once and it worked perfectly......but the judge told me not to do it again at least until my probationary period is over!


Almost time to get our fish on!!!
