*SMILES*


Man ... I'm starting to think that you have some SERIOUS PROBLEMS (Mental).



You apparently dont know how to follow a time line (Chronological order) or read to well (maybe your just stupid?)

1. I originally SUPPORTED the thread posted on bowfishing (not the practice, but the fact it was legal and people are entiltled to their personal freedoms)

2. Then I stated without any Flaming or Rudeness - that I was not surprised that alot of board members would object.


THEN.... I TOTALLY IGNORED YOU!


So... what do you do? Decalared me "Enemy of bowfishing #1" .... began talking about how English is your 3rd Language (but you know it better than me) and started Quoting Dictionary references.

Now you seem to take great efforts in referring to my Photobucket Account and claiming absolutely nonsense.

* Did you see the Target Circles I painted on all my fish?



Seems like you have some ANGER ISSUES.

Envious? Frustrated? ....there is HELP available

I dont want to get too much involved in this debate... but from just reading your post it seems like your the one that took Jims comments quite personal. If what Jim said was wrong about you, you could've easily just ignored it like a rational person... but instead your posting youtube videos on how jim should go about seems like you indeed took offense to his arguments.

More emotional drivel lacking any sort of logic. I've been fishing for plenty of different fish for over 20 years, and to say that it takes more skill is very ignorant(not saying one or the other takes more, they both have their differences in difficulty). Most fishing is simply having a proper setup (depending on method being used and fish targeted) and waiting for a bite. Then with a bow it's again waiting for a fish, however needing accuracy to aim without a sight and to compete against the refraction.

Plenty of assumptions being made, as well as insults. Evidently some people can't have a rational discussion due to getting caught up in their emotions and enjoy ignoring facts. As for fishing a certain way making someone pathetic, anyone can toss out their personal bias.. there are plenty of people who will say releasing or keeping a certain fish is wrong, fishing in general is wrong, hunting is wrong, etc etc etc. You may want to consider seeking help if something bothers you this much.

Agreed... some individuals just feels more confident by putting others down because they lack confidence in themselves. Its the sad reality

I don't know if you understand the irony of that statement. Firstly because both of those languages are my primary languages in life, as I said in the shout box English is my third language.

Hypocrisy is not only preaching one thing and doing another, as is commonly believed by most English speakers today, instead it is something deeper then that, its the deception of others while hiding your own actions. A drug addict who tells other drug addicts that drugs are bad and you shouldn't take them is not a hypocrite unless he conceals the fact he is a drug addict to them.

Regretfully I can not be a hypocrite with regards to "insults" as you are attempting to make me out to be, for one, I did not denounce his insults, I simply stated in a question that the anti-bow fishing thinking has officially progressed to insults and I wanted to be clear that was the case. I have never said that insults were not a valid means of discussion, but its nice to know when the discussion progresses to it, as tactics in conversation sometimes may need adjustment for it.

Secondly, I did not insult you nor was I rude, at least in the sense that it may constitute a insulting tone. It was a simple cause and effect logic between you not understanding what "fishing", "angling" and "hunting" is, and a lack of education typically being the cause.

In addition to this, if you want real hypocrisy, you claim to be all about catch and release, and yet the majority of pictures in your photobucket stream clearly show that most of the fish that you have caught, did not make it back into the water, and the ones that did clearly didn't live long afterwards as you completely disregarded standard handling methods for catch and release that will maximize the possibility of the fish making a recovery. So by posting that its all about "catch and release", denouncing another Fisherman for fishing with full honesty that he intends to keep his catch and yet not mentioning your typical methods as evident in your pictures, you are the one being a hypocrite. Congratulations!

Jim

Well said Jim.I couldn't have it in any better way.

I respect all the opinions on bowfishing for carp. However, I think everyone is entitle to their own style of fishing. I believe that bowfishing is the same, if not better, than eating animals that are brutally slaughtered in slaughterhouses; remember, when you point your finger at someone, there are three more pointing back at you. Moreover, by judging a person by the style they fish only proves that you are a shallow and judgmental being.

i live in Scarborough and not too familiar with the centre island and how to get to snake island for fishing, was wonder if you can provide me with directions
thanks
