The way the rules work as far as I am aware is that, you are allowed to post any body of water for any fish other then trout salmon, but are not forced to post any locations if you do not want to.Alfiegee said:

we don't live in communist china, once I join an open forum I have a position of power in the form of my opinion and my voice--which is and remains the same--100 years ago it was cool to overfish salmon and trout--now they are dwindling in numbers to the point of conservation groups having to put farmed fish in waters to return to somewhat normalcy..--it would make sense that the same anglers that know this history(which is anyone over the age of five) would assume that if we start giving out info on how to politely eliminate other species using the same, consume and never replenish, methods we have in the past soon we will all be fishing for twoonies at the local fountain..if this makes sense bank it in your brain for future intelligent use, if it doesn't please use your own words and don't waste your time replying because either way history and human nature have proven beyond any doubt that my theory is correct. not to mention noob I have nothing against you personally..so don't take it that way..see you on the water..we can share our honey holes and pray there are fish there for our future generations..its not always about the rules--sometimes common sense, albeit uncommon, needs to prevail..FishingNoob said:

Yes the Grand is truely a great Bass fishery. Not going to knock the north because I have been some great places there too, but a friend and I caught 30 Smallies in one outing last summer. About 6 hrs. Doing the math that is 5 fish per hour, or 2.5 fish per person per hour. That doesn't include the Channels we caught, 12 and 1 Pike. Also 1 Bowfin and a Gar. It's not always like that, but is usually pretty good. The Bass weren't monsters, but went up to about 2.5 or 3 lbs, a lot were acrobats in the lb rangeKnuguy said:

I could be wrong but from my understanding migratory fish are also more susceptible to fishing pressure.. that's why I keep bass occasionally and try not to keep as many trout or any salmon (salmon are useful for meat anyway once theyre in the tribs IMO). I think its also worth noting that a good sized lake trout can be 20 years old! So migratory fish aren't the only ones that are vulnerable.NADO said:

well said!!!! fishingnoob! i agree with you! im in a same way! i shared infos or even let them try my bait! theres a lot of people out there desperate for help! but too shy to ask! just like me when first started out! lol... but thanks to a lot of nice fellow angler out there! who is not afraid or selfish and willing to shared their infos and knowledge! and not to mention the etiquette of fishing! i think thats the only way on how to educate people out there! it worked on me!!! lmao. lets preserve fishing by helping people out there! meaning share our knowledge! and let us not be vigilante or a law enforcer out there! lol.... you cannot prevent people from fishing on your secret hole! but you can help to preserev fishing by sharing and spreading your knowledge out there! thats my suggetions fellow anglers!~FishingNoob said:Thanks for reading the rules.
I fish for anything that tugs my line, and as I have mentioned about 1000 times before. That is mostly bass, because most of the info out their is for bass. Like I have mentioned in about 20 posts, is that I am for the sharing of information and having faith in other anglers. You seem have to close minded view to fishing, where it is you against every other angler out there. Hell you probably change a lure when someone walks past you so they don't know what the "hot lure" is that day. Me totally against this, I'll gladly share my lure and hell if I have an extra and their cheap, I might give the sucker one! If he hangs around me and we fish together, I made a friend and he might share some info with me. The close mindedness in trout anglers compared to every other angler specific species is crazy, that's why I don't fish for trout, cause the attitude trout anglers have to a noobie who doesn't have a cp or fly rod if crazy. I have never never never understood not helping a fellow out. I am fed up with people like you who think they can be some vigilante and enforce the rules, when they have no position of power, let the mods take care of it, not a gang of forum bullies. I can't wait for summer when other forums come active cause the attitude towards anything close to a productive conversation here is that it has to be in pms. For example, I cannot understand how people will skip a new members welcome post to reply to a "more popular" one. I personally don't have time to come up with all these long posts, so you'll have to argue with your self...
