Under the slot and over the limit

Lets get back to the original story of the two “folks”, one with a bad leg, possably LIVING in the white van, maybe trying to catch enough fish to feed their family for the day. And here comes a nosy, busy body with a bunch of passion for conservation, saying some stuff about illeagal fish, breaking the law, calling the LEO,s on them. Would you have offered them some of your “leagal catch”? Polled up next to them and help catch some Whiting? Or maybe started the conversation, " How’s it goin’? Havin’ any luck? Man those are some good lookin’ fish! You folks here on vacation?" Then let them no with some compassion, that the fish they have maybe a little short to keep. And mention the three per limit. Instead of walkin up with your chest all puffed out with threats of calling the law. Sounds like you young guys need to realize alot of people don’t have a fancy college education, the great job, with all the nice things, fancy house, nice shinny truck, 20’ center console. Not that you do, just sayin’. Maybe a little more compassion for the person, and less for the fish? And yeah maybe if I see some guys keepind Bull reds, which contribute to the population, rats probably do not, or clubbing baby seals, boiling sea turtle soup I might say something. But with a little cooth.
Here again my opinion, But sounds as if you young guys got it all figured out. So good luck with that. Have a great rest of the week, I’m haeding back to the surf.


Wow! I was outed too :wink: 2 can play that game.

…and a “chip thing” because I care, lolz.

Socked in the eye? Why would I sock anyone in the eye? You were the one who assumed violence would incur from simply talking to someone on the beach, not me… not like we’re talking intervening in an armed bank robbe

I have the serenity to accept I can’t change the fact that what I spent my kid time learning through exploration, trial and error and just being out there, is now just a click away. There’s an app for that and I can’t change it… but I’ll be danggone dagnabbit if I’m gonna sit back and let the hordes pillage because I’m afwaid I might get beat up.

I realize this makes me the “bad guy” and I apologize for offending dparkers sensibilities in this matter. :frowning_face:

:dizzy_face:

Someone call the hyperbole police… and the whaaambulance.

Thanks for keeping the topic up top… the title say’s it all, hope the right people see it.

And the best Bump of all :smiley:

“If it were catching, Everyone would be good at it.”

DP playing the victim is even more LOL :sunglasses:

Delete his self absorbed “life advice for us youngsters” and his fantasy about what really happened, so he doesn’t look like a fool.

Make jokes or post pictures joking about killing illegal fish and I’ll have every right to comment on this public forum, unless Andy say’s so.

…and thanks for bumping this thread up for the LEO’s to see as a reminder… scumbags are obviously still out there pushing the limits.

With all due respect you need to learn how to take one, a joke that is. Unbelievable…


With all due respect back, stuffing 20? 50? dink reds in a cooler is no joke.

edit to add: If you look at the FBCP thread, I lol’d. I thought it was hilarious they went to that extent for an “over slot get”. Then all I did was ask a few questions, doubt the # of fish killed and the dude lost his marbles, sending me a nasty PM at 6:30 pm on a Christmas Eve.

WTF over?

and the joke about “shame on that over slot whiting”…that was a good one… poke the bear some more joking about beating it to death and throwing it away…so funny man.

Being condescending is (should be) a two way street, which is why we are here in the first place.

Poke a bear and what happens, you end up butt hurt and delete all your posts, looks like. :face_with_head_bandage:

I won’t make it to 100 posts, I’ve seen enough and most of it’s pretty lame.
