I've heard that trotlining worked too! "After all, it is not the killing that brings satisfaction; it is the contest of skill and cunning.

Will save a lot of gas money or you can just start fishing earlier! Whatever these geniuses come up with is what we are stuck with

Heck I guess If a man wants to sit and watch a pile of corn to kill a few then have at it. Ain't gonna bother me none just be careful and don't shoot any hens and you should be fine
