Locnar Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 I was hiking along a creek, and found this... I believe those eggs laying on the bottom below the belly, which I didn't see until I looked at the picture. If you're going to do this, which I do not promote, at least take the roe.

Locnar Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Waste of a nice brown in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highdrifter Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 When does the need for roe trump someone's understanding that this was a living thing and should have been given the outmost care and respect... That's just a frightful display of pure and utter comtempt for a fish, and for fisheries management in general. Brutal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Brutal indeed. I'd be inclined to take it (if it where obviously fresh and eadible) for a meal. That coming from an angler who could catch a trout to save his life..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Looks like the guy didn't take all of it! I hope you took it home with you and tied it up. Brownie roe is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Razor Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Utterly disgusting. What a nice little hen as well. But it happens every single fall... perhaps the MNR should invest in signage or further explanation against this sort of thing in the yearly rule book?

Locnar Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 She was a good 24 inches or so... Beauty fish. Poor thing had the misfortune to be caught by the wrong person. All along the river there were tons of Russians fishing, elbow-to-elbow style, saw a few wheeling carts back with a couple big dirty chinnys in them... why anyone would want to take home a chinny from the river is beyond me... I would have taken the rest of the roe, cept I didn't see it until I looked at the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeytier Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 If the idiot just kept the fish and ate it he would have harvested the roe legally and would have gotten a meal to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed an influx of Russian fisherman too, I dropped down into the Kawartha's for some evening dam fishing for walleye a few times, I saw walleye in the slot go into the trunk of the car, a small muskie go into the trunk of a car, I even nearly lost my rod when the guy that had crept up beside me, crossed my line, thought he had a bite, and then set the hook with a herculean yank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigreddog Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) If the idiot just kept the fish and ate it he would have harvested the roe legally and would have gotten a meal to boot. You're assuming this person (and I use the term loosely) has a license. Given this obvious display of contempt for the resource, I wouldn't bet on it.

Depends on where you are in the Kawarthas. Balsam has a reverse slot -- you can't keep a walleye if it's between 35cm - 50cm Edited September 11, 2013 by bigreddog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookinforwalleye Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Happens every year you ever witness the annual slaughter that takes place on the saugeen?

Locnar Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Yeah definitely, I wasn't just calling out the Russians... I just noticed most who were fishing that creek... not the saugeen... were mostly Russians. That looked like it happened quite recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallie Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Boss. Most guys dont eat chinnys out of the river because they are beat up and dont taste very good. Unless you smoke them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishindevil Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 Yup welcome to the GTA fall carcass/roe slaughter !!! It's nothing new been going on forever but it's just more and more people doing it all the time as the population grows !!!! And with social media now the public is going to get involved sooner or later and they will probly ban fall creek fishing ?? It would not suprise me it's just a gong show and a sensless thing but it labels us all as fishermen who would do this as we as a group can do nothing to stop it or we end up going to jail !!!! When will we take our fisheries back from all the idiots ??? And that's not just creek fishing !!!! Ever been to a Kawartha lakes dam and see the bucket brigades in action ?? It would be easy to stop just not the legal way !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted September 11, 2013 Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 The law actually protects people like them from people like us,who can do nothing to stop it !!!!! Imagine the stench all along all the creeks and rivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello,this is Steven Harper,Im sorry,but your hard earned fishing dollars are being redirected to our save the trees fund.Everyone loves trees If you are in need of a MNR officer,they are no longer on call,as our free the bear spring hunt is,doing just fine now. I thank you for your continuing support of our natural resource. Feel free to support our endless none support of your natural resources. If you feel you have been satisfied press one. If you feel you want to piss on Steven Harper and his P3TA followers,,press,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Harper is federal; MNR is provincial. If you have issues with MNR then it is the provincial Liberals that you should be complaining too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
