[QUOTE="ChasingMossy, post: 5113703, member: 15966"] I agree that it hurts a fishery but in a different way than you are probably thinking I’m just assuming here, but I assume you think that it’s hurting the fishing by way of mortality. Personally, I think fishing pressure is what hurts a good fishery. When fish are constantly seeing artificial lures they become much harder to trick. To me, Dale Hollow is a perfect example. 4-5 years ago you could go there especially at night in the summer and have the whole lake to yourself and the fishing was phenomenal. Now that word has gotten out about how good the largemouth population has gotten at that lake it’s like a zoo. I don’t care what time of year or what time of day for the most part there are fishing boats everywhere. It has totally changed the lake. Now you might be the 10th person to hit the good spots on a given day instead of the first. There is still a gem of a lake in middle Tennessee that is like Dale Hollow of a few years ago. I just pray that the same thing doesn’t happen to it [/QUOTE]
