I'm guilty, though it was a case of forgetting to smash some barbs down, I was ticketed once. but in a previous question someone posted this:

"The rule is BS and I simply don't follow it. I don't keep the fish I catch anyway. I just don't follow the regulations if this stupid rule is in place......"

these rules are almost always in place to protect native fish populations or to help a struggling fishery recover, these regs always lower fish mortality rates, & usually after about 3 years result in much improved fishing, not only more fish but often much bigger fish. why then can't we respect the regs? are we that selfish?

I am going fishing in a lake. Many tell me that there is mostly bass and trout. At the local bait shop, although my heart was set on powerbait, the man insisted that nightcrawlers were the way to go! Ewwwwww! Ah well. I heard rolling the worms in sawdust make them less icky--but will it affect the yummyness for the fish?

Does bass like worms more or trout? And what waters do the fish prefer? I believe that the trout loves the shady areas and bass near the warm surface. Can someone please clarify?

Also, I am going to bring tortilla dough and cheese as bait. Oh! Also and mini-marshmallows. Please. May I take your tips and answers?! Also, correct any of my info if it is not right.

Thank you so much. Good luck on all of your further fishing endeavors!

I'm looking at buying either a .22 or .17 bolt action rifle, not semi auto. I am wanting to know which will give me better accuricy and distance for targeting? I also need to know which make and models are good on a rather tight budget?

Target shooting specifically. I went to a shooting range a while ago, and man, when you pull the trigger ... it's an incredible feeling of respect for the physics and chemistry behind it all. Anyway, i had a blast and would love to get more into it ... but am totally clueless on how. Any thoughts?

Where are some good places in and around Chicago to hunt, and if so, what game is available for hunting? If possible, can you give me the name of a site that could get me a hunting license, etc...?

Hi, I just started fishing and the DNR site says this one lake mostly has panfish. What are they? Are they good to eat? And what kind of bait should I use to get them/what techniques should I use? I haven't been fishing since I was a kid so im kind of lost.

Especially if it is a shooting competition and there is a time limit of 15 seconds imposed for 6 rounds to be fired?

I went fishing and my mom got the catfish bait on her hands. She can't get it off and now she is FREAKING OUT. We've tried dishsoap and lysol and hot water. What else??

My Dad had got this shotgun in a trade from a friend that he works with and I was cleaning it today (we had this shotgun for less than a year) and I noticed a orange like color on the outer ring of the barrel that connects the barrel to the stock (this part is perminatly attached to the barrel and is closer to the muzzle that the chamber) and anyways

I told my Dad and showed him and he just said that it was a dis-color-ation of the metal. I disagree but I know this could be true because for a shotgun this one I think is on the cheaper side, but its still a great gun.

So how can I tell if its rust or not and if it is rust how do I get rid of it without scratching up my gun?

I do know that when a car gets rust you sand the rust and re-paint the car but for the rust here would I sand it too and then re-paint?

And thank you all ahead of time for reading all this and helping me!!!
