Im not going to get to specific because I'm sure some of the people lurk here.

I was fishing a local lake around me this weekend. There was I local club tounry on a small lake. I'm actually surprised this lake still has fish given the size and pressure it gets. Long story short... Pulled up to the launch at 4 after the dzn or so club guys got their boats outta the water. Had my aunt out for her first fishing trip and my gf. I got a 32" 6.7 lb pike so I was happy ( like I said. Big pike small lake). When I got to the launch there was a 3.5 lbs largie floating not 10 feet from shore. My gf looked behind the boat and noticed a 3 sitting sideways one the bottom. I LOVE to eat fish but also practice management. That big girl went back and any big bass I get. Even on big lakes like Simcoe. I HATED to see these fish dead and discarded. There is no was they were alive in the wells when they are dead 10 feet from shore. I wish people would ask other boaters if they wanted the meat if they didn't want to eat it. I understand fishing for sport an tournies but don't waste dead fish please. It only gives all of us a bad name ( professionals, parfessional and weekend warrior alike).

Please change your water and keep frozen water bottles on board to keep the oxygen
levels high in your wells

I'm glad I seen atleast these two. My grandparents love bass. I was able to take them and fillet them. Just hate to see needless waste.

Rant over. Thanks all
