Some good fish South..

Enjoy fishing Woody,it is a great way to recreate outdoors. It is obvious you do it on your own terms and enjoy as well as respect the resource.That is as much your right as it is Kenny's to do it on his terms.The bashing gets tedious to some just as Kenny posting corpses of cows does.Although some folks may think too much is never enough when it comes to self-promotion as Jim Sylvester points out,but I can't help but think threads like these would be detrimental to a business. Ken has won numerous ASA tournaments not to mention being featured on television and publications for all to see his prowess in catching large.There should be enough information to fill plenty of web space or promotional fliers.The insatiable void is his ego.

Wow you seem to know so much about me?? Funny you dont preach that crap to your buddies that kill 50's because they keep killing, and they fish tourney's as do You, and they write articles, and they have done tv shows, and so on... If you caught a 50 you would be the FIRST one snapping pictures and running to the scales with it, how proud were you of the 40.25 you weighed in for the cup last year???You had a boat this year... 50's should have been jumping all in it!!! Had a bad season I take it? Expenses high? Dont even know ur backyard...Not easy when the fish arent stacked and you have to put some EFFORT in it... Your buddies catch a 50 and we all hear about it within hours so stop kidding yourself. Ive seen how you attacked other fishermen / surfcasters on here in the past, its what you do. Thanks for the lesson in business. I guess Business is really bad for me, all I get is meathunters and cowkillers calling, where are the C&R guys? Im so damn tired of filleting. Should of never sold the small boat! Enjoy the winter behind the computer! I need to find a bigger cooler damn it!

Sorry for getting all up your grill. Like I said, I get all crazy and judgemental at times.

If you wouldn't mind keeping us in the loop, there's a lot of us who would again like to know what's going on with the winter fishery off of VA and NC.

Be safe,
Jon

I think there is a very distinct difference between fishing legally and fishing responsibly. So what if you're following the law, that doesn't necessarily make what you're doing right. Cowhunter is obviously very proficient at catching large. I think with that comes more responsibility. Pounding away at big fish throughout the whole year can't be good for the fishery. It's just common sense. If you keep removing big fish from the ocean, eventually there won't be any big fish to remove. How many people have been saying that the past few years are showing the same trends as the years leading up to the last crash? These warning signs seem to fall on deaf ears though. The type of mentality that exists up here would never fly down south, say in Florida and look at how their fishery is flourishing...

And BigFish, who are you to call people ass holes and tell them to get off their high horses? You're one of the most opinionated people on here and are constantly bitching and ranting about something. Honestly i'm surprised you don't take more of the conservationist approach seeing as how you couldn't seem to buy a fish over thirty inches this fall...

[BigFish]

I was just doing my part for conservation this fall Bart! But seriously its good to hear from my fans!

I stand behind my comments Bart......am I opinionated? Sure am but who on here isn't? At least I have respect for other peoples opinions and other peoples rights to fish as they like as long as its legal and I don't sit on here bashing people for it as others do! Don't ever worry about my fishing Bart......I may go through slumps on occasion.....but I always get mine! Hey......have your people call my people.....lets do lunch!

I wouldn't apologize. He just comes here to get a pat on the back, stir the pot and talk about how the number of stripers killed should be reduced while posting pictures of stripers he killed.

Best season for me to date Ken. I have a lot to learn but got a lot of hours on the new boat.Fluke,sea bass ,cod,haddock,tog,tuna,I even caught a couple bass.Fished with my brother a lot and really enjoyed my time on the water.It's hard without Bruce holding my hand, but I'll get there in time and have fun doing it.Expenses weren't a factor,you know my boat is cheap to run.Nice to hear business is good for you,I know you fish hard.You can use all those clients to catch fish for you to weigh in the tournaments right?Uh,where did I hear THAT?
Take it slow Hollywood.See you in VA Beach.
