Nice.

Solid Gold.

I used to fish down by the sailing club on the south side .... years ago when I lived in Calgary .... some good spots in there.
I love happy endings.....

I really don't mind someone calling me out for what i did if they think it was wrong....after all i threw a guys fish back in the water, but only because of the stupid garden comment...i do not care if people keep a fish thats not what this was all about, and i really do not want to become one of the guys on here that pick a fight just for the drama of it, so im actually looking forward to meeting up and just fishing.

I'm with ya bud, regs are regs, your right... But why keep a trophy fish? respect the fishery. I've seen 2 - 30+ inch walleye pulled from the Athabsaca get bonked and thrown in a cooler... Ya it's legal, blah blah... Why, why!?? Let those big mama's go!

Trophies are to be displayed. Can't be a trophy if you throw it back!

Cheers

How can it be displayed if it's been eaten?

If you want it on your wall get a replica. To each their own, but I prefer to see those trophies swim away.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fully catch and release. Don't like eating fish, don't have any trophies.

However, I can see the allure to hanging a prized catch on the wall, but on the flip side, regarding replicas, NHL players don't get to keep the cup, just a replica and a ring, so, fair point.

Tight lines!

Where does it say the use needs to be eating, it only covers what bits you keep when you trash what is left over.

I would say it is a non traditional use but it is a use and oddly the fish is fully utilized.

I guess our Asian friends could call the fish cops on the white folk who throw the fish heads, in some cultures fish heads are very edible , so waste is a matter of perspective.

Wow on the Smelts and Herring......
That's full retard


They should just put in a bait ban. And make it C&R or slot or 1 over 80cm. The potential of this pond is epic. If people let them grow.......
