I know that fishing with more than one rod especially for big fish would be too much like work for me. Just the fact that I have to clean the bait every few minutes is enough for me.
I DO however have an opinion on what's currently happening out there. If you don't like the law as it stands, work to change it. Don't go about masquerading as a protector of the resource under the cloak of an association and then go out fishing with more rods in the water then the law prescribes. I've witnessed it in the last couple of weeks and folks, and the hypocrisy of it all just burns my .
