Catching a record-breaking fish out of season
I don't think so.

Catching a record-breaking fish out of season
Okay, if you say so. Seems like most guys with PA plates around here know the regs better than anyone. Your article is from 2015, btw. That's the most recent guide published (2021) I linked to. Pretty sure if whatever you're doing is harming the out of season fish, you're getting a ticket - especially if it's a trout or salmon. DEC officers are goofy about them.

How do you store new, unopened hard baits (in original packaging)?
I'd like to get to the pegboard way in my new house, but for now they're in large Rubbermaid totes.

Catching a record-breaking fish out of season
There's some misinformation propagating here. First off, the black bass catch and release season applies to all but Region 5 (Franklin County) where targeting black bass is forbidden out of season. The rule for catch and release means catching and immediately releasing the caught fish without harm. Initially there was confusion since no definition was given in the guide for what "catch and release" meant, leading some really self righteous people to make assumptions about what the law meant. Later versions of the guide included this info. It is still an offense to catch an out of season species, and photograph it. Those must be immediately returned to the water. From https://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/fish_marine_pdf/fishguide.pdf As always, this is NY state, and there's a reason there's a 100 pages - don't assume that the law applies everywhere in the state. Meaning, there's 99 pages of exceptions, lol.

Chemically sharpened vs cutting point hooks
If it gets bent out of shape more than a few times, I toss it.

Chemically sharpened vs cutting point hooks
It's how people that don't have sob stories about lost fish live. Simple as that.

Chemically sharpened vs cutting point hooks
You can file them under "can't replace." Though I toss spinnerbaits after several catches to avoid snapping that ultimately happens.

Daylight Savings Time
Yeah, that's more of an argument to make for NOT changing the clocks. I was looking for data of kids getting hit by cars waiting for the bus.

Daylight Savings Time
Is there any data that would support this? I think you're worried about something that isn't a problem. I guess we don't agree on it, it's cool.

They already go so early they get on in the dark. It isn't a problem.

Chemically sharpened vs cutting point hooks
If a hook goes dull, I replace it. If I can't replace it, I have a little hook sharpening stone that works well.

Am I nuts buying Tatsu ?
I've gone 6 years with 6# Tatsu on a spinning reel. The down side was the line getting a little low on the spool, but the line was fine.

What happened with all the 6’6” rods?
Not really that surprising, the only lines that have 6' and 6'6 rods are Legend Elite and Premier. Personally, I really liked their 6'2" casting rods and 6'3" spinning.
