[QUOTE="BuckWild, post: 5428632, member: 217"] The article states: [B] "Everyone should be able to kayak, fish, boat or swim on Tennessee waterways without fear that another recreational user has set a potentially lethal booby trap."[/B] So they are worried about getting caught in a trotline after they have loaded their gear up in a automotive vehicle where the annual death toll nationwide is right at 40,000 deaths, and driven to their waterway of choice. Yea...OK. I only know of one death resulting from a trotline and that was 30 or more years ago. A local man was running a trotline on his private 5 acre lake on a very windy day, apparently ran a hook through his hand and wound up going over and drowned. How many people do you read about everyday that die in auto accidents? Potentially lethal? That is life itself... [/QUOTE]
