choices have consequences
Responsibility should be of key importance when deciding choices.

Ego's and self importance factor in also

come join the spectacle

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Incredibly irresponsible. Especially when you call your 30 lb fish a 50.

Bruce, I always laugh when people brag about how many fish they caught and say "... I was catching them every cast". Where is the skill in that?

Completely irresponsible on his part. You can’t claim to care about the fishery then send the masses there to hammer on them. I was getting texts and calls as soon as he went live. Same thing was probably happening along the entire east coast.

And you can’t call yourself “The Diving Fisherman” when you don’t even fish anymore.

Call out the action, not the personal attack.

This was why we did not do reports, even to the site's detriment.

I now realize that I have caught numerous 50lbers. 60's too
I like how he had to warn the guy that "this is live" as he was about to reach up into the gill plates to lift the fish.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

the skill is getting your butt to the water at the right time and having the ability to cast a lure to the fish. After a while every cast is no longer as much fun but it feels good to succeed. Usually the point of fishing is to have fun enjoying the outdoors while having success is a bonus.

bragging is just human nature
Live feed, well that can wait before broadcasting in my opinion. Put it up in the winter

Really irresponsible. With fewer areas holding fish this kind of stuff just puts more pressure on what is left of the population. Some people just never learn I guess.

Mike Laptew shared a video on Facebook, live, while a good crush of fish was happening.

I was hoping he would take down the video and help handle the fish.

Granted I think a bit of hyperbole was used when Mike said Ron had been fighting the fish for 10 minutes, but the lack of care on the revival and release was disappointing. It's possible that fish swam away and went belly up 60 seconds later.

The video is 9+ minutes long so it appears he was fighting the fish for 10 min, which is absolutely ridiculous.

But I essentially agree with everything you stated.

somewhat irresponsible

Due to the lazy nature of most internet trolls, videos of that nature will draw out the "wanna-be's" and the "use-to-be's" in numbers.

Then there's the attraction of some low-lifes that will target your vehicle while you're waiting for a chance to cast and catch one of the fish as it passes by.

Also consider (natural absurd progression) if the waters in question happen to be around private properties? What's to stop these same "followers" from trashing someone's property just to be able to say they were there?

I am a legend in my own mind!

I don't do FB anymore so I didn't see this. I am surprised at Mike as he has always been a conservation minded individual. perhaps he has succumbed to just wanting to sell his videos.

No boat, back in the suds.

I didn’t see the video, so I don’t know how big the fish was, but none of my three 50+ took that long. Sounds like they may have milked it for the additional footage.

no
it was hooked behind the gill so it got broadside to current
it's hard to reel in a fish like that there especially a 30 pounder


I saw Mike put up a post about the big stink about his live feed where he defended his actions.
I'm not sure if that helps or gives fuel to the peanut gallery

To see a live stream there are steps it doesn't just show up on your phone ... then if your watching it that means your not there. And you missed the bite. If it's in the canal you couldn't call that spot burning .. and if after watching you drive to where ever it's over.... like ray said its basically a video phone call
