eel moratorium.. has it begun?

[eelman]

All the self rightious people! I would bet anything that any of you in the middle of a blitz where the only thing that was working was eels, would take one and hook it right up, moratorium or not!!

I'm not greedy and so self absorbed I'd break laws to do something that can be done a million ways.

#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, I'm not implying you take shorts. Just trying to understand your rationalization that it's ok to use an illegal bait if they should be banned.

What you've repeatedly said is you'd break the law. What would you say about people sneaking into a herring run at night and taking them even though they're a legal bait? Is that ok if they REALLY wanted them just cuz it's their bait of choice?

Expand your horizons, try something new. Bass can be caught lots of different ways. If you're as good as you always say you are, I'm sure you'll do just fine.

Look they may call me "#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&" but I certainly fish other methods, how would you know? I just feel its the best bait for cow bass. As far as other methods , well I would certainly put more time in with sluggos, Next to that I would chum and chunk and if I wanted numbers when there were fish on mullet or something I would plug.

Your baiting me into something stupid, you want me to say "I am breaking the law" Since your questions are totaly hypathetical at this point an answer from me only invites trouble, as of now eels are legal!! I will say this, if they were not legal and someone offered me some? I would use them in a heartbeat and break the law

I have a lot of clients who subscribed to that theory for buying their drugs

Unfortunately, people who do illegal things sometimes get caught, and their way of getting out of it is to offer to rein in other saps for the cops

Maybe you haven't noticed the dark green trucks sitting in the parking lots with binocs?

Guess not.

They're always down there.

[BrianS]

Nope..

The only green trucks Ive seen recently are military trucks.

Not to say they arent there.

but doesnt matter... because none of the millitary guys came up to me the other day offering to sell me black market eels.
