  1. Sounds simple enough. Lol The average wage in Thailand is around $800CDN per month. So regardless of their economy, I didn’t expect to see $20k USD boats.
  2. Heck I would!! The real question is...where are they getting the loot to build $20k USD boats??? Lol
  3. Ark, I’ll try to explain with a complete hijack. Pm sent.
  4. You’re talking in circles. “The best thing for that fishery would be...”. Sounds like a solution to me. Please explain where you got the information that confirms there is a “total lack of repercussions/changes to ensure that it never happens again”. You know this how? Explain your research. The irony here is they practice catch and release because they care about the fishery. The truth is they can make it a derby, bonk fish on the head and be well within the limits. The MNR works hard to protect our fisheries so I ask, did the MNR lay charges(repercussions), cancel or issue controls on B1? Why not?
  5. Loose facts = knee jerk reactions. Not sure why the MNR hasn’t caught on to your simple solution.
  6. The tournament ran July 13/14...your post was July 24 so yes it was over. Everyone agrees that was an especially bad tournament for the mortality rate and because it’s a catch and release format, they need to do better during times of extreme weather. What I take issue with, is throwing one tournament series and one especially poor tournament out as a solution for an entire zone.
  7. “Not only did they kill 183 bass, they killed 183 of thebiggest bass in the area.” Last time you posted about this it was 183 bass and now they all 4 lber’s too! Exaggerating does nothing to gain credibility. It’s not great that it happened but suggesting THAT is a solution as opposed to seasonal adjustments is simply ridiculous.
  8. Are you guys saying news outlets are not supplying unbiased, middle of the road, coverage???
  9. 30 minutes or the advice is free
  10. Big surprise!! Who could have guessed that was going to happen?? Lmao
  11. This is definitely one market segment that is going to be hit hard. So many strikes against them...non-essential, American clientele, and small business. Plus with so many job losses and a looming recession, spending is tight. I hope they have a booming fall season.
  12. Great idea! I think that got suggested once upon a time in the hockey thread. 👍🏻
  13. Unless a new member signs up with the Hatetheguns username. Lol
  14. Looking at the picture, I think this thread could easily turn political. 😀
  15. Telephoto lens on a GoPro??? Hehe
  16. When I think back over the the years to the many times I now wish I had a Go Pro it makes me want to get one. The added benefit for is is....I won't retaliate because it's being recorded!! lol
  17. Im not exactly sure who you are saying wants to sensationalize it? Media? Maybe. So why isn’t the gov.com website saying .00014%? If anything, they absolutely want to minimize the impact to protect their positions.
  18. Huh? Are you saying the death toll is artificially inflated for ratings??? Seriously?? The numbers are on a US government website and I’m 100% positive the big kahuna there wants anything but Covid sensationalism.
  19. Regardless of what the number is, it should still be the focal point of concern. IMHO there is no acceptable number regardless of what the total population is. Covid 19 knows no borders. It’s the virus against humans. So the only percentage that really matters is the one that includes world totals. Hence the entire argument regarding social distancing...no one is in this alone and our actions influence others.
  20. If leaders do too much OR too little they will be criticized. So we have to ask, which side of wrong should they risk being on?? I can’t see how taking time to carefully divide up States so some people can go fishing is a good use of resources. Considering people travel it’s also futile. I do find it interesting though that people seem more outraged over restrictions than concerned about the 45,000 dead people. I’m saying you are, but the rallies would indicate it.
  21. Can be opened up and should be opened up are significantly different. I have to question the logic when the top 1 & 2 US States with approximately 350,000 of the total US 802,000 Covid cases are increasing access to public contact. More than half of all Covid deaths in the US are in NY and NJ alone. I’m no health expert but following the models used in countries and areas that have already worked seems like a sensible idea. I commented because your statement contained so little info, other than they are opening access, I found it ambiguous and misleading. Personally I’m far from convinced it is a good decision. It’s becoming more about succumbing to public pressure than body count.
