WOW!! That was fast...Thanx CWUgrrrl.

Guess I should try out a few search engines...

Minibear,
Hey, sorry, was not bein judgemental, just did not understand...without novices the sport would die out!!

Probably the only way to save our wild fish runs is a complete ban on fishing fer ten years or so. Unfortunately, most people find that as unpalatable as I do.

Anyone have any experience using circle hooks? Seems like they would be a good way to go IF they hooked fish as well as our beloved Octopus style.

I really enjoy the exchanges in this thread, some very good thoughts.

I also get alot of laughs from the people who get "spun-up" so fast!!

Take care n Keep the Faith

Sincerely,
Roger
