Ehhh, I’ve seen the catches some bring in with the TM, it’s still more luck than skill. Personally, fishing deep we rarely use the Rhodan. Comes in handy on the 100-150’ stuff. I’d rather not put the anchor barrel back on the boat. And if you’re going to do that we need to get rid of braid, tiny reels with 30# of drag, light rods with incredible power, hooks with razor points, livescan/structurescan/chirp, high res charts etc. go back to Senators with mono and fiberglass broomstick rods.
What we need is sensible management of the resources and creel limits. The Fed Goobermint doesn’t need to be dictating the seasons or limits to SC/NC/GA/FLA fishermen. We buy state licenses, let the states set the seasons/closures. And NC/SC/GA sure as heck shouldn’t be governed with/by FLA.
Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.
