Default Cullin on Boom Lake

Tournament fishing in general and culling during tournaments in particular
has become a real hot button item here in Wisconsin. There are two camps
that have become extremely divided on the entier issue. Part of the problem
lies in that the way the "Culling Regulation" is being proposed, is that you
would only be allowed to cull during a permitted tournament. The general
fishing population could still not cull. ...


That's just flat out wrong. Preferential treatment for tournaments ?
That's outrageous. If anything tournaments should have *more*
restrictive regulations than recreational fishing if only because
tournament fishermen catch more fish per capita than recreational
fishermen.

If I lived in Wisconsin I'd be livid. And vocal in my opposition
to this wrongheaded nonsense.
