Re: Opinions on Snake Heads
Some laws are stupid, and blindly following what BIG BROTHER decrees just because they can is ridiculous..
If you don't want to eat the fish [ I would certainly try them], and they are already there, why make a stupid law that you MUST kill them?.. how utterly moronic.. Personally I might kill them myself, but who the hell is the government in telling me i am breaking the law if I want to release it.?.. Who makes these idiot "laws" anyway?..
here in NY the Great,Finger Lakes, St lawrence river, oneida lake, and others,.. are all infested with millions and millions of Round gobies.. they are way more destructive than the snakehead can ever be.. The DEC wants them killed.. Fine.. However, If you catch one in any lake or river where they already exist by the tens of millions, and DARE put it on hook as bait, right where you caught it, you are breaking the law, and fined heavily.. So no, as far as I am concerned ,stupid laws , are just that.. stupid,, and I feel no compelling reason I must blindly follow them because some suit that probably has never even fished says I must... bob
