Cast netting makes me more angry then anything. I was fishing at the sandy lake road dam this evening and watched a guy throw his net out and get a huge hybrid, he put it on a stringer of course. I didnt say anything, I probably should have. However, one day when I was down there, there were 2 guys who didnt speak a word of english cast netting and they were getting small crappie and using them for bait. I flipped when I saw that and called the game warden but i dont know if he ever came or not. I just try to do the right thing and I think we all should.

Youre kidding me! They didnt speak english? I bet they were of French origin right? ha ha

is it gonna take a person who follows rules to shoot someone breaking the rules for the GW's to stop being scared and do their jobs!!! all these stories are ticking me off!!!
