This series of posts reminds me of a guy I ran into in Massachusetts. After he noticed I was fishing for bluegills which he considered trash fish he said, "You can take every last one of them out of this lake. They are garbage as far as I am concerned. I like to fish for the bass."

I should have asked him what his bass were supposed to eat but I didn't. Sometimes ignorance is best left alone.

Mike, this was not directed to you as you were advocating just the opposite, but these posts reminded me of the conversation I had with this guy.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
