It wasn't so much the netters keeping bass, which was rumored but never confirmed, but the netters setting sprawling and often-unmarked nets in shallow spawning areas.

The waterfowl issue has been an ongoing problem, for much of what ICOT described.

Just because Hembree's wife doesn't like hunting isn't a reason to add more no hunting zones. Unless there is a clear safety or biological reason then enforcement and education should be the solutions.

I'd like to know how a city can override TVA's regulations, too. Yet it's done all the time with "bird sanctuaries" and no one says boo about it. It's BS.


And yes, Perch, the next thing will be boat speed limits, more no-wake zones and minimal-speed zones. That's already being pushed like hell on Lake Jordan by homeowners.
