I would call the snaggers hotline, get some video evidence. make sure the cops are on the way, then pull out your pistol and put them on citizens arrest. I dunno what to do it always depends on the situation presented.
lmao @ citizens arrest
ok so here is the situation (not a real one) it has happend to me many times and my dad told me to just leave em alone so they dont mess with us. you see a bunch of punks cussing and laughing snagging fish after fish and keeping them. it's only that group of people and you on the river.. do you tell them to stop,go up to your car and call state police or do you just keep fishing while they snag every fish in the hole? ive sat around and watched people snag fish and the people around them seem like they dont give a rats ass and then i have to be the one to call a game warden or go to the hatchery and get someone to bust them..don't get me wrong it's a good deed but i don't like having to talk to a trooper for half an hour while he says he has to witness the snagging to ticket the jerks. there has only been a few times that i have got a trooper or hatchery personel out to the spot in time before th snaggers leave with a butt load of illegal fish. so the question is..what would you do?

call me ignorant, but i wouldnt let such activities pass in the waters i fish......... in other words give em hell! i remember a day when i had seen people snagging bass off beds witch is utterly effed up to do to any fish, PERIOD... you can catch and release them off beds with no harm done but to snag a spawning fish out of frustration is LAME, i have never seen it happen without not saying something... almost always after mentioning it they leave but it doesn't really solve the problem, one of these days i will show em haha. i remember a while back there were a couple drunk guys on the bank just surrounded by garbage floating or in the bushes one guy was cleaning out his backpack and throwing paper in the trees at the ponds....... i hate that stuff.
everyone who fishes even the snaggers have it....well most of both have it. it on every liscense/tag you buy on the back. never hurts to read the fine print.
people who snag spawning fish need to get hook in the butt and dragged around on a rocky shore for 30 minutes
im not big enough to do that but i can pull a knife on someone? brandon
Just don't be the guy who brings a knife to a gun fight....
