Default Soft plastics found in trout stomachs

My apologies Shawn, I didn't read the entire article.

Warren - actually, there were 2 fish mentioned in Ronnie's article. The

one
with 19 plastic worms and lizards (plus hooks) in it was otherwise

healthy.
That fish was not caught by Ronnie, but by someone else who took the fish

to
a taxidermist. Further along in the article however, Ronnie then says he
himself caught a bass once in Lake Martin that was skinny and in poor
health. This fish had 4 plastic worms in it's stomach, and was starving

to
death. This incident was what made Ronnie finally stop throwing his
plastics into the lake.

Read your article Ronnie - it's a good message and one that should get

out
there more often. I hope it doesn't take each angler to find a skinny

fish
full of plastic to stop throwing them out like that. I have to admit

that
years ago I used to do the same thing.
