I was doing some bass fishing in the canal behind my home yesterday, on the other side there are few guys tossing a castnet, at first I figure they are trying to catch bait. I get within shouting distance and see they are netting bass, all sizes and keeping them all. I didn't realize how many bass were there as I catch 2 fish and they have net full on every throw...lol. I alert them to the fact what they are doing is illegal, it's one thing to fish with cane pole and take home legal fish, I have no problem with that. I pull out my phone and call the FWC, they jump in they're car and take off, I'm sure only a report is filed and there will be no follow up, there are just too many places to patrol.
