View Full Version : We're all going to hell!
LMAO it's been a while since I've checked this site out. It is thoroughly entertaining and a great way to spend time while eating lunch at your desk. I especially like the questions in the FAQ "Did jesus eat fish" and the attached photo. http://www.fishinghurts.com/index.asp

Nick,
I think deep down you want the mentioned, " Worlds First Fish Empathy Quilt"! It will keep you nice and warm for the up coming winter months. :)

The funny thing is sometimes I do do that to my dog!!
"Why not let fish enjoy the beautiful day, too, by leaving your fishing gear at home?"
Because it wouldn't be fishing! Idiots.
Advocacy groups like PETA who deal in complete absolutes drive me insane.

My favorite quote on the PETA website:
"Imagine reaching for an apple on a tree and having your hand suddenly impaled by a metal hook that drags you—the whole weight of your body pulling on that one hand—out of the air and into an atmosphere in which you cannot breathe. This is what fish experience when they are hooked for “sport.”

Wow, I didn't realize what a torturing bastard I've been! Oh well...
That site also made me want to try out bowfishing, looks fun!

"A hook through the mouth causes a serious and extremely painful injury that is often fatal without treatment. But anglers just toss injured fish back into the water—often without realizing what they’ve done."
I wonder which member of Peta can talk to fish? Have they ever noticed that they immediately go back to what they were doing after being hooked in the mouth? Don't most animals, including fish, have recovery time from a wound that is "extremely painful"? I also can't remember the last time one of my fish went belly up and can't count how many I have caught that already have scars from previous hooks.
It's funny how this school of thought is very convenient to these wackos, so they just treat it as fact.

Cuz fish can't catch a Frisbee?
"A hook through the mouth causes a serious and extremely painful injury ...
That's exactly why I return them to the cold water ASAP. It is like putting an ice pack on their lip! :)
PETA and the ACLU....true American heros!
ACLU is an anti fishing group too?

Once you close your tackle box and open your mind, you’ll be able to enjoy the beauty of our lakes, rivers, and oceans without contributing to animal suffering or environmental destruction.
They never mentioned fly boxes.

OK, I'll take Nich's bait...why would it be "ignorant" to make a sarcastic comment about the ACLU...?
