OMG Jeanna, You just made an old Marine almost puke his morning coffee.

$800.00 ticket, gotta be a DumbAzzzzz in every crowd. Hope the judge gets his license for a year also.

The people whom you are refering to are the same ones who caused all the trouble from the wall, including throwing oversize fish sixtie to seventy feet only to be injured or killed. Although I fish from a boat and have fished in front of the dock towards the wall let me assure you there's not...

There's nothing sweeter than that.

Oh, in response to the poll, to much.

As with any business, I'm quite sure there are areas that could be twicked that would save dollars and increase productivity. When I see four ODFW people standing on a dock with their arms folded across thier chest scratching their chins discussing how to install rod holders on the dock, it...

Makinaw in Green Peter ? :think:

I will be fishing Simtustis on April 29th - May 1st. This is a great lake with lots of fishing for different species. I will be targeting the Steelhead and large Kokes. For me this is one of my favorite lakes, for which I have spent many hours fishing. If your there on the dates I'am look me up...

You seem to be a little confused about the differences between liberials,conservatives, and independents. In any event I'm not here to turn this into a political forum. I dont care about your political views or any one elses, I'm here to share my fish interest with the other members and nothing...
