Nice shooting. Bassassin - That is the way it goes. When you troll to catch fish with hooks, death is going to happen. I am sure Vinnimon did the best he could, the Lake Trout's very nature is to spin when fighting which invites this kind of thing. The big lake is full of mud chickens due to heavy stocking so it is not like he physically assaulted an elderly woman. Lol

That is just awful

I have always had a soft spot for Bob. He fished tournaments back when the guys slept in their trucks and he has been loyal to his sponsors forever. The guys that change sponsorship every other year lose credibility when they are shilling you products. Good for Bob for taking his first Yankee tournament.

I can see where everybody is coming from on this one. I will say this though. If you think that the way they are approaching you is unsavoury, then do not give them money.

Indeed. I should also state, and maybe should have earlier prefaced my argument that I am not at all unsympathetic with the police force's challenges. I just wanted to counter your point that in Canada the 'courts' give criminals a free pass when clearly it is the police as well. I think another thing that I have failed to mention is that lots of good police work is being done and our courts have done plenty of hard work putting these thugs away. We also have the luxury as Mr Bailey has suggested of living in a country where the crime rate is fairly low. I still look forward to lower crime rates however. I don't want to be walking with my wife and son through the BPS parking lot and get showered with bullets by some arse that thinks he should shoot someone that he thinks disrespected him and due to horrible aim takes my family down.

I understand that dear sir. Your on one the sides of this argument. The cops. There are plenty of prosecutors and judges that could complain and whine all day long about the shabby evidence and poor police work that does not allow them to do their jobs. I am on neither of those sides. The side I am on is the guy that pays the taxes and has to walk down the same street as the criminals that get let go.

With all due respect, the courts are not out to prove anything. That's the job of the police force and the prosecutors.

I will never be able to get my head around the idea of someone wanting to shoot someone. We have all wanted to stroke somebody in the chops here or there but I can not imagine ever wanting to blow somebody's head off. Like those jerks in Yorkdale subway a couple years ago who were shooting at another drug dealer who ran into the crowd at 530pm these guys could not hit him, hell they missed most of the crowd. I think they got a few ladies in the legs. To further FishnAutographs point, they were out on bail for gun charges at the time.

I was just reading the Vancouver Sun about how the RCMP had complete disregard for the suspects charter rights in an ecstacy lab bust that the courts had to throw it out. So sometimes the cops screw up as well. Now those scumbags are walking the streets with the good people of Vancouver. Often I imagine that the courts and the cops are pointing fingers at each other as the bad guys are snickering on their way out the door. http://www.vancouversun.com/health/RCMP+Charter+violations+prompt+judge+toss+evidence+drug+probe/5183422/story.html

I was thinking river guys vs the lake guys. lol

A little unsettling. Who wants to get shot picking up some fishing line? Not me. http://www.thestar.com/news/crime/article/1032615--shots-fired-outside-vaughan-mills-mall

Put a big picture of you holding a fish on the wall. Best of luck Sir.

Nice choice Dave. Great tune

How bout this Brian. This is a sweety. A satire from Woody Guthrie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CogtZ4EUwww

It is not suppose to be on. They have a good time doing a cover and after 2 minutes the guy shows a great voice. It is just something a little different. I liked it. But I do not like U2 so that says a but about me lol. Cheers

Looking good. It has been a good year for Salmon. I have yet to make it to Erie for eyes yet.

Cyclical consumption. If they made a car that would last 50 years they would not make that much money. If they could make a car that lasted 50 years we would want a new one after 5 anyways because of the heavy marketing campaigns they have for everything nowadays. It is all about cyclical consumption in a throw away society. In order for you to want to throw your stuff out and buy new stuff they have to make you believe that the new stuff is so much better. That is why they have these stupid ICast's every year so the same old talking heads and shills can convince you to buy all this 'cutting edge' equipment, while the whole time sneaking around the show trying to get a better sponsorship deal with a another tackle company so they can convince all their fans that they should in fact buy 'this' product line instead of the other one they have been shilling for years while preaching about 'credibility'. PUKE. Hey, but that's just my opinion. lol.
