I've caught fish a lot of different ways and loved every one of them. My favorite thing is pond hoping in big pasture country. Some of those little fishin holes will surprise you.

getting back into archery and Jesus Christ. Now that's quite an eclectic combination, archery and Jesus Christ. Jesus is good. Archery is good. Lots of archers and archery mentioned in the Bible.

Same thing goes with bowhunters, if you're satisfied that's all that matters. Don't get me started, getting back into archery and Jesus Christ. Here we go.

Mask, fins, snorkel, boat cushion, fish basket with cord, jar of worms, ice fishing pole (with wooden handle).
My gear for fishing Devil's Lake until the swimmer's itch got bad there. Park on the south shore, grab gear, wait 'til there's a lull in the traffic, then head down to the water's edge. Put on gear, wade out a bit, position boat cushion under my chest/belly, tie fish basket so it hangs below boat cushion, place jar of worm in fish basket, grab ice fishing pole and paddle out to weed beds. All anyone saw from above was a snorkeler.
Position over bluegills, reach into fish basket, unscrew worm jar, pinch off a piece, replace worm jar. Bait small jig and lower line to the bluegill you want. Dance that jig in front of the bluegill, watch it get sucked in, set hook, release ice fishing pole and hand over hand bring in fish. Pole floats to surface, butt end up. Unhook bluegill and insert into fish basket.
Repeat 'til you get how many you want. Swim back to shore, watch for traffic, when there's none quick hustle up to vehicle, unload, towel off and head home to clean fish.
Now that was fishing.

All the illegals would use those when i was growing up and shove their hands in their pockets and bottles on the ground to avoid getting checked for licenses. Resourceful, Wolfdog! Great poaching rig as well. Seen that in England a lot trout and salmon poachers would just drop the whole rig into the stream if a Bobby of other legal type came along

cannibals and useful idiots
Written by John Wasmuth
The following is real, and it’s here. Joe Hunter goes to a cocktail party, nothing fancy, just a holiday gathering in Anytown, USA. A conversation begins with Bob Peta, it goes something like this; “Say Joe, didn’t you go deer hunting this year.” “Sure did Bob.” “Man that’s, uh, great, did you get one?” “Yep, sure did, nice 6 point.” “Uh, wow, hey that’s great. Say listen Joe, yer a true hunter, a ”Real” hunter are you not?” “Yes, I sure am.” “Say, I hear tell of a kinda huntin where people can go and kill animals in fenced in areas. You’ve never done that have you?” “No, no I haven’t.” “Well I wouldn’t call that “real” hunting, would you Joe.” “Well, that’s not the way I hunt.” “I know Joe, but there are people that hunt in fenced areas, I don’t think that’s “Really” hunting, do you Joe.” “Well, uh, I guess not.” “Great, say listen Joe, a bunch of us concerned “Real” hunters are trying to get that done away with, we feel that it is unethical. Will you help us Joe?” “Well sure, because that’s not the way I hunt, and I am a “Real” hunter.” “Say thanks Joe; here is what we need you to do. As a “real” hunter, the big boys in senate and congress will listen to you; they know that any “Real” hunter only hunts the way you do, and that’s the only “Real” hunting there is. So what we need you to do is get out there and get petitions signed, people will sign them because you are a “Real” hunter and know that only your way of hunting is the “Real” way.” So Joe diligently goes after the goal, to ban and outlaw any kind of hunting that Bob suggests is not “Real” hunting. He gathers signatures, petitions courts, makes meetings, he is really cleaning up this “unethical” way of hunting. [Please excuse my language... I'm an idiot], he’s got a lot of support. He’s gathering “Real” hunters from all over, and finally, after much hard work, they get a legal way of hunting banned.
“Joe, you did great and we sure appreciate your hard work, but hey, let me tell you what I heard about. There is another kind of hunting “We” think is not right. Do you think you can help us?” “Well, I guess so Bob, I don’t hunt like that, so it’s not “Real” hunting. How can I help?” “Well, here is what we need…….,” and it’s the same story. Odd how Bob seems to keep adding onto the list of what “Real” hunting is, but Joe goes at it hard and heavy, and in the end, he gets that type of legal hunting banned. Bob and his “Friends” are happy. Joe’s a “Real” hunter after all, and these other guy’s, well, they are not, because the way they hunt is different from Joe, and Joe does not like that type of hunting, so what’s the harm in getting rid of it? Joe’s a “Real” hunter you know. Not like those other guys. He even goes to Sportsman’s organizations and recruits from within, it’s easy because there are a lot of “Real” hunters there.
Time passes and more and more legal forms of hunting are banned. Bob and his “friends” are happy with Joe. He’s been a big help. After it’s all just about gone, Bob and his “friends” decide that it is time to get Joe’s way of hunting banned, the final chapter. “Bob, uh, hey buddy, this is Joe. I know I helped you get rid of all those other forms of legal hunting, but now there is a move to get rid of the way I hunt.” “Well Joe, I know. My “friends” and I are spearheading that.” “But Bob, I thought you liked the way I hunt, that it was ok for me to do the type of hunting I do.” “Well Joe, no, any and all types of hunting are bad, the poor defenseless animals never have a chance, and we dislike, actually hate hunters.” “But I thought the way I hunted was “Real” hunting to you.” “[Please excuse my language... I'm an idiot] Joe, it was all “ Real” hunting, but we at PETA and HSUS Hate you, but thanks for all your help, we really appreciate it.”
You see, what Joe became was a “Cannibal”. A “Useful Idiot” to the anti’s and PETA. They don’t give a rat’s backside how you hunt, what you hunt, or when you hunt. They just want all hunting done away with. They use hunters against hunters to gain support for their “Causes”.
If you do not support any and all forms of legal hunting, and decide to pick and chose the ones you like and dislike, and voice any decent about the way someone else legally hunts, you are in fact, a “Cannibal” and a very very “Useful Idiot” for the enemy. There are plants even within the sacred walls of your favorite Sportsman’s organizations. Route them out, expose them, and rid the board of them. Hunting’s future depends upon it.
