If you look at my pics, each one shows me holding 1 fish, not standing in front of 50. I hardly think keeping a limit of 8 seabass one time per season makes me a hypocrite.

Lastly, I'm not picking on 6 pack boats or captains for hire, my comments apply to anyone posting extreme pics.

Maybe I am just knit picking BUT it's 50 fish for 7 guys so no different then u keeping your limit . I go out to fish twice a week ,only 2 tile trips this year and I honestly can't believe that I am getting lip for it .This is ridiculous . My last 4 inshore trip I didn't even take fish home but instead brought tile fillets for the guys to take home . Any good trip can be considered a "Slaughter " Should we be ashamed of our fishing skills ? Ugly stick it's not personal and don't take it as such but we do not need to be told how to fish or what to post .

I find this just a shade disingenuous. You posted those photos along with a rant precisely gauged to provoke people who might find your attitude distasteful. Now you're surprised you're "getting lip," well really...you shouldn't be.

It's Friday afternoon and I don't feel like babysitting this post all weekend since it has all indications of going south, so I've closed this post.

Carry on....
