My post wasn't directed at you noxcape...your post was perfectly clear. I make my above comments more because this is in a "public" section and I don't want anyone to get any dumb ideas.
I'd shudder to think any of our members would do such a thing, even where it is legal...I don't think that is a sporting way to fish and would be embarrassed if someone from BCFR went and fished illegally, or in a manner like what I describe above.
We are sportfishermen. We have integrity, respect for the resource, and some pride in how we fish. Anyone who bends that "mantra" just so they can catch a fish, looses all respect from me pretty quick...
Again, my opinion.
