elmtree,

Sounds to me like they're snagging in Caluifornia, and they're snagging at Kenndedy creek, too. You can call it whatever you like, but it's still snagging.

I've been to Kennedy creek many times and it's usually a snag fest. You can go there and fair-hook the majority of fish by not setting the hook every time you feel one swim through your line, or you can hook a stupid amount of fish by setting on every bump. It's not that hard to tell the difference between a line rub and an actual bite at Kennedy, but some guys are just there for a limit (why some guys keep those dark-ass calico fish is beyond me). Make no mistake though, if guys used the same hooking techniques with a warden standing there, there'd be some tickets written.


I'm not saying that I have a serious problem with a guy who keeps a chum hooked in the head, but some guys take it to a whole new level. Setting the hook 3 or 4 times per cast in an obvious snagging attempt, and keeping anything landed. Now that's crap. But with the lack of enforcement at Kennedy, or anywhere else for that matter, what else can be expected?


Fish on......
