TROUT are a WASTE!
Message:
To hell with the trout! Rip out the hooks! Nobody cares about the trout! IGFA says.... Marlin, Swordfish, Lawyers, Yankee Power Canal, Sea dogs, reading every word, floating trout pictures..... Lol you guys make me laugh with that post below.... Thanks I needed that I will say this....... #1. I agree 1000% with Nick P. They're stocked trout. Who cares? In a small pond they won't survive past July anyway. Take a look at Eastbury Pond every year in August. What very very few trout are left (because they're the freakin easiest things to catch on the planet.) are dead floating in August ready to be eatin by the birds. I just see Trout stocking as a multi million dollar bass feeding program. Other than that its a total waste and good bass lakes are shut down for weeks during the best time of year, because of the freakin Trout. #2. Another good Nick P point. LEARN HOW TO NOT GUT HOOK FISH! I haven't gut hooked a fish in years! Mainly because I'm not a Senko thrower but more so because I pay attention and detect a strike before the fish has digested my lure for 5 minutes. Senko chuckers gut hook more freakin fish than anyone BTW. My advice, learn how to fish. Use something else. I caught 30 fish last year on the River over 5lbs including one over 9! Never touched a Senko all year. Guess what? You don't need senkos! #3. I really hope you guys aren't digging the hooks out of gut hooked bass especially ones on the River. I can guarantee the fish will have a much better chance if you just leave it in rather than performing some half ass operation on it. If I see a lot of dead fish on the River, like say in the Nuke plant, from people ripping out hooks, Ill be dishing out a 250 horse power shower. I promise. #4. LEARN HOW TO FISH! REAL FISHERMEN DON'T GUT HOOK ANY FISH!

Problem with that is people (kids as well) like the fact that they're easy to catch. Easily accessible and don't have to do much other than a hook and worm or power bait and wait. I could go with not chasing trout at all but to each his own.

Justin, I agree but kids have to learn somewhere and somehow. I cant see a 5 year old whipping out a Clack n crank off their Snoopy pole. LOL Im happy to say I got my son interested in fishing again the other day (9 years old) and he wants nothing to do with throwing bait at all. He saw me whipping a lure and asked to try it and thats all he wants to do which is awesome as now I dont have to run to the bait store when ever he wants to go fishing! I took him 3 years ago and he did good catching fish but after that lost total interest in fishing so Im glad I finally got him back to being a man!
