3/1/2010 8:41:00 AMHey Mike! Why did you edit this report? We only caught 4 fish so I don't know what the deal is. 2 fish per person x 3 =6.

3/1/2010 1:07:00 PMNo pictures were attached. If you send them to me [email protected] I'll add them. The report was edited due to the indication that bait was used to catch the fish and the angler continued to catch fish after the 2 fish limit was reached. The part that was cut out reflected that. I send you a PM...

3/1/2010 3:13:00 PMHey Mike read it again there was a complete total of 4 fish! You hear that 4 FISH! One was lost tryin to get it to the boat that doesn't count against your limit if you didn't see it anyway? There was 3 people in the boat that means 6 fish! 2 times 3 is 6 isn't it? AreYOU smarter than a 5th grader Mike? Great report Mothug 33 sounds like a blast!

3/1/2010 8:39:00 PMum, you're reading the EDITED report (the little note at the end of the report "Edited Report"). And no, sometimes I'm not smarter than a 5th grader, but thanks for asking. Trust me, I don't edit reports for the fun of it.

3/1/2010 9:21:00 PMHey ya mothug, great report. Since I did read the reports last night, I have to agree with Mike here. IF I hadn't been on the water WATCHING you guys fish, and seeing WHAT you were using, I would have been under the same impression as stated. Mike is only doing What a responsible host (or whatever his title is ;o) would do in his case. For the person that didn't know you guys weren't hookin worms on every jig cast, it did look like you guys were fishing AFTER you had kept the limit of two (2) fish, by the way your report was written. Since I saw your pink Jig (minus a chunk of worm OR bait), I "assumed" you didn't boat over your limit of RW Trout on bait caught trout. I think it was Jake who was telling me of leaving trout in the water while releasing them while Jig fishing earlier. Now you can see where there are two perspectives on the report. Mike's intention is to always uphold the integrity of the site, which I think he & Aaron (plus the moderators) do pretty good given the number of the reports, so the deleted section was very condeming as written. Anyway, good job out there and I'll have to post a report. Oh and by-the-way, the 12oz curls didn't help with that rod bending bruiser which threw the hook did they. Ya gonna have to work harder. LOL. Stay cool Dude

3/1/2010 9:33:00 PMhey there lipripper5584, chill out my friend. read your post, then re-read it a couple more times. What I'm saying is the way a person words their sentences can be misread by others. When I read it, I thought you were advocating group fishing, party fishing or what ever it's called, where everyone keeps hauling them in untill the max limit is reached. This seems to happen on offshore charters, but the limit is TWO Fish For each Fishermen. You are right when you wrote " There was 3 people in the boat that means 6 fish! 2 times 3 is 6 isn't it?", BUT that is assuming EACH fisherman caught 2 fish EACH for a total of 6 fish. This is what the regs state, so here again, it's necessary to watch the wording of the comments. I'm sure you're smarter than a fifth grader, and would be aware of the rules. So I won't ask you that question. AND by-the-way. I ain't no dummy (even if my spelling is bad), BUT there are some fifth graders that could put me to shame. LOL. There have been posts in the past which have brought critisism, and it was because of the wording. SO everyone. Let's put some effort into conveying our messages by being aware of the way we write it down.
Go out there and catch a big one, and lets see some pics. Enjoy the time on the water.

I hope it doesn't turn you off to posting reports.
