A big issue with frenchmans is the long walk... I know a lot of guys who are to lazy to carry thier fish out and will drive down the private road to pick up thier fish.. THAT is why the gate has been locked..

I want gas at $5 a gallon to keep the riff raff out of my town

guys need to start using their heads and fillet their fish on the rocks leaving the frame for the crabs and carrying the meat out in a bag.Thats what we do when we take fish out of our spots,If I had to carry a fish out of the spots I fish I would never take a fish.

And when you do this on private property and the rack washes up on the landowner's property and they don't like it, then what?

There's this thing in National Forests called "leave no trace"
More people need to acknowledge it.

they are doing construction on site.

You should make sure it doesnt have to do with that, before you go on about the sky falling.

How 'bout USE YOUR HEAD. We don't do it in areas where the racks will wash up.

I guess some spots that might not be a good idea.I think it depends on the amount of people catching their,and if there are homes near by.The spots I fish are off the beaten path and are public with no homes close by.I do this because the walks are long and even dangerous towing a fish.and I myself have never seen a frame at any of the spots I fish.But I see your point.

There are ways to build carry harnesses with 1" tubular webbing that put the fish on your back and keep your hands free. Same as dragging deer out of the woods.

This thread makes me HAPPY!!!!

Well, not really, but sort of. I never did fish frenchmans. So I have NO IDEA what I will be missing.

SUCKS! for the guys that did though.

If It was one of my pet spots I'd be bummin for sure. Sorry guys. I really mean that.

The way I understood it was that the road that was gated was a historical right-of-way. The spot is not private - the road leading up to it is. They essentially stole the access from the public when they established an association and built the homes.

Less bitching and fishing and more PT.
