Thanks Orvis
There must be some grey areas, or even regs that are confusing to read because I see a few questions about the regs on here all the time. What if I can't read english? I may make a few mistakes in the translation.
Barbless is a good one to start with as it wasn't a law until recently and I run into a shitload of people using barbed hooks. If I see it, I say something about it and let that person know they are fishing out of the regulation. If they pinch down the barb, cool, but if they tell me FO, I'm gonna call RAP.
I don't disagree with that, but I think getting all Big Brother on the situation isn't the right approach. We are headed in the right direction though, and this board is a big part of helping out the CO's with thier calls. Poaching should have a pretty low tolerence level, but for some other violations.... Just saying there are some situations that call for a warning and others that call for fines. The fact they the warnings are recorded means that they can track repeat offenders on some level.
I'm pretty sure we are all playing for the same team.
