Two Lines or One.

[OldTimer]

Regarding the number of fishing lines allowed in Ontario for fishing.

I’ve been pondering the logic of the current situation and conclude that the existing rules are a bunch of discriminatory hooey.

I really don’t buy any reasons, whatsoever (and I’ve heard ‘em all), why anglers fishing in open Great Lakes waters, or ice fishing should be granted enhanced opportunities to catch fish by being able to use two lines………. like…….. Really……. we all pay taxes (lots)……… we all buy a similar priced licences……we are Ontario residents… aren’t we ALL worthy to do so?

Why are we soft water anglers, who are the majority of anglers, being unfairly treated? $ spent on soft water non Great Lake fishing, or non-ice fishing, vastly outweighs the current “privledged “ two line anglers.

Please note that I might never actually use 2 lines, but being restricted burns my butt.

I think the rules should be the same for all…………. One or two lines…….. either way I’m good with one rule………. if it’s an universal regulation.

Comments?
