throwing fish on beach

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wouldn't be considered as littering? I mean a dead fish in public area - once it start to rot ewwwwwwwww
 
a lot of people here do that. Ex would be they leave ladyfish on the pier to rot =[ so its bony and not the best fish to eat, then throw it back. get over it, they are there, they will be there, you will catch them and killing them is not going to help. Same thing with gar.

My bf, chompers and I were at wekiwa river fishing and the bf caught a nice bowfin (we LIKE bowfin and bowfin fishing, and no they dont hurt the bass population as bass thrive fine here with them.) and these guys kept saying "why dont you kill it" "give it a nice bonk on the head" and such and complained that they ate all the bass eggs. Yes thats why there are a lot of bass swimming in the river, b/c they ate all the eggs.

Those things annoy me.
 
Yeah tell me about it. Many people thought roughfish are destorying or decrease the gamefish population which its not true, any roughfish live along with gamefish for really long time. The only thing that would decrease the gamefish populations and thats non native fish such as carp, gobies, ruffe and snakeheads.
 
Go to any peir in California (where you dont need a licence to fish) and just watch the mass killing of all the fish pulled up. People think just because they are there know they can kill as many as they want. Soon the fish will all be gone and then we are in trouble. Its very sad.

anybody else bothered by this? for the first time today i actually saw somebody doing this. an old guy threw a 12~14" sacramento pikeminnow onto the beach behind him and was leaving it there flopping in the sand, i threw it back in and the guy got mad at me and told me to not touch his fish, i told him that it wasn't on a stringer or in a basket so it wasn't his fish and to suck it up. he told me to bleed somewhere else. i told him to either sever their spine or throw them back. is it legal to just throw the fish onto the beach?
Haha pwn'd
Up here in NY happens all the time. It's tough to look at and gut-wrenching, and downright pisses me off, but nothin you can do about it. Up here, ppl catch a buch of 4'' Bluefish (limit on Shorts under 8'' is 8 I believe) and put them in a platic bag. Really got me going was when someone up here did it with an 8'' Jack Crevalle. There so rare up here, and a tiny one like that has no meat on it, maybe it should be released to surprise another angler! Happens enough that you just gotta deal with it IMO. You gut guts to mess with his catch to; credit too for saving the Squawfish, endangered species!

That's the obvious answer, but they can't really be so stupid- right? If so, I'm going to enjoy reading the thread in the lounge about the MFK members arrested for assault.

[edit: Possibly battery, as it would be done with a "weapon" and not fists alone.]

I know a person is smart but people in mass are about as bright as a wet match in a dark cave. And with the respones from the thread as is it seems they all joined the same boat.

Also if not assualt of bettery maybe disrupting the peace or harassement

you know what if you really think i would pick up a flopping fish from the sand and go slap an old man with it then i think i know who the stupid one is!! i dont care about wild fish THAT much

you should learn to take a joke, everyone else thought it was funny BUT you. im not even going to say anything else bc it would only get deleted by a mod.
