Dead stuff found while fishing (beware gross picture)

[finchaser]

Pretty common when it's hot people don't have coolers or ice ,fish go bad,they take a picture and dis-guard the fish. All the marina's by me got fed up with it and now don't allow throwing any fish or parts in water ,they must be bagged and put in a dumpster. Many people also realize the bigger fish are not really great to eat so after the tackle shop picture they dump the fish. Pretending to forget the fish and leaving them on the dock after a picture is also becoming an issue. Welcome to the new generation of bass fishermen.

Could be night time bunker raids tight to the beach and they beach themselves seen that several times in a spring spot I fished although fin probably has a more accurate description.

If you have no cooloer or bags or ice to bring them home then THROW THEM BACK. They should be practicing catch and release with the big girls anyhow.

I'll never understand how people can waste a fish like that. Hey if you want to eat it, that's fine, but throwing away a big breeder because you didn't think about how you were going to ice it down is awesomely selfish.

Its really unthinkable what some people do, did not see any dead bass today (first time after the 3 straight weeks). Was wading out ocean side around 2:00 AM and noticed a bunker between my legs. I moved 10 feet and it pretty much followed me. Would not leave me for 15 minutes. Finally I reached down and grabbed it. It was dead, with hook and line that wrapped my wader foot.
Story has nothing to do with thread, except the bunker was dead.

Sorry Monty, no offense intended. Your post put the line from pulp fiction in my head.

What he said, the waste of fish is shameful.
