as you know the new fishing year is under way , and with each and every year comes the dredded regulation changes . some states have very few , others have volumes of changes . wether it's fishing bounderys to length of fish or whatever in between , take the time to review these changes . it may save you fines and loss of priviliges ( some states , your rights ) and the loss of your equipment .
and for a moment while viewing the " new changes " contemplate why these changes were put into effect , if you are still stumped for a reasom , contact your d.n.r. head office , question there reasons for the changes , go as far as to demand a responce from them that adequatly answers your questions . they work for you ! they have to give an answer ! ask who proposed the changes , there reasons for the changes , and who sponsored the changes . becoming more involved in your sport wil make you a better all around sportsman . knowing the who's and why's of these changes will give you the uper edge when confronting new " sponsored bills " that benifit certin orginisations that try to impose there doctrins on the rest of the states citicens .
belive it or not , a lot of your rules and regulations come from groups that want to see there club rules as a state wide law . some are good , some are bad . what i concider bad ones are the ones that regulate the size limit to such an excess that only " trophy sizes "are able to be taken or have to be released .
i may be old school , but i belive once a fish has reached it's eating size , well it's days are numbered from that point on , trophey or not .
if you have some new rule changes you would like to discuss , put them down and let's see where everyone stands on the issues .
