But you aren't above paying to fish in private water, are you? No, and I'm not beneath it either. It's one thing to fish DuPuy's and another to claim that you're protecting the fishery by doing so. We fished it in February and having a streamside warming hut to drink a beer in was worth whatever the off-season rate was. -- Ken Fortenberry |
