davey buoy Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 Being here a while now,it seems to be a few bad apples that always have that little dig or something to rant about. Most are more than helpful and non judgemental.
Trevor0179 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 I knew it would happen, which was why I tried to give him some friendly advice. As for out of season fish pics, yup, I've done it. Think the thing that got the guys steamed were the shots of the bass laying in the grass. Looking for advice how can laying a fish down in the grass be harmful to a fish? Why are people so affended?

BCLT Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Posted April 30, 2012 Looking for advice how can laying a fish down in the grass be harmful to a fish? Why are people so affended? cause they are key board tough guys - next time lay the fish on some broken beer bottles! coming from a guy who uses a padded mat for landing carp! Heres one for you.......... its the law to stop at a stop sign...... do you think I should start taking pictures of people doing roll through stops? Ill keep my camera in my car, and take pictures then phone the police...... but then ill get a ticket for using a device in the car lol......hmmmmmmm

Bob Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 Some folks seem to have a need to display a "holier than thou" attitude. Once I fished a Ganaraska trib and had a fellow (dressed in the finest LL Bean fashion) berate me severely for killing a brown trout. Never mind that stream resident browns are the tastiest of the trouts IMO and never mind that they're not even native, this fellow considered browns the elite of the trouts so it was ok that I killed a brookie but not ok that I killed a brown. Go figure? I like fish. I like wild fish. I don't much like frozen supermarket fish. In this guy's eyes, I was some sort of buffoon. Don't sweat it when these "holier than thou" types climb on you. They just can't help it.
asdve23rveavwa Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 Looking for advice how can laying a fish down in the grass be harmful to a fish? Why are people so affended? Great question!! The main reason people are offended is that it is an out of season fish, which is to be released quickly. Taking the time to lay it in the grass and take a picture is frowned upon. cause they are key board tough guys - next time lay the fish on some broken beer bottles! coming from a guy who uses a padded mat for landing carp! Buddy, relax. If you think I am a "key board tough guy" you obviously haven't been reading the OFC for long. Any and all of my comments were, and are, for the OP's benefit...well except for the comment on his habs hat, lol. B
Moosebunk Posted April 30, 2012 Report Posted April 30, 2012 Never can understand why threads like this and the MNR one and some OOS fish pic thingy will end up getting 10 times the views and 5 times the replies, then likely locked up. While on the front page there's a number of anglers who have put in time and value with some well photographed and written fishing reports, of which are going by seemingly unnoticed in comparison......?
