This. And also this to the slobs who show up and fish on the lockpond and drop their trash all over the place, leave lures and fishing line caught in my trees, and come over and help themselves to my tomatoes (really? Go grow your own. I will catch you at it and you won’t like the results).
I once got 4 salmon weighing about 20 lbs each without spending a cent or getting my pole out. Why,, you ask? Because people were gutting the females for their eggs and milking the sperm from the males (for fish farms) and throwing the fish up onto the bank.
If you don’t mind all 7" white perch, anchor a boat with a rudder below a hydroelectric dam. Have a weighted stringer over the side. Steer back and forth from bank to bank and add the fish to the stringer. Larger fish will be chopped and killed by the impeller blades, while smaller will pass through unharmed. The goldilocks will be stunned and easily picked up by hand. The stringer keeps them in deep, oxygenated water and revives them.

Ok, rant off.

@Leeroy – Can’t agree with you more! Hell hath no fury like a gardener deprived of his home grown tomatoes.

And when that slob leaves the beach he comes by my place and throws more garbage. Lazy bum thinks he is too good to put his trash in a receptacle!

He probably dumps his ashtray in the parking space he’s vacating. Smokers thing the whole world is an ashtray.
