Anyone know what year the counties voted to have fishing on Sunday? I remember fishing on Sunday as a lil kid. We even fished in public waters. Why can we fish on Sunday but not hunt? I'm thinking about getting a petition signed to do away with Sunday fishing for the same reasons we can't hunt on Sunday.,

Lets see; we can fish, golf, SHOOT bows and guns, work, play basketball and football, hike, swim, shop, attend church, not attend church, ride ATV's and motercycles, ride bicyles, go boating, ski, ect...........BUT we are not allowed to HUNT!

I never understood this!

we can also go to strip bars, buy alcohol, get drunk, have sex, mine coal, cut timber, go to the zoo, shop, eat out, go racing, garden, butcher livestock, build a house, run a business, hate your neighbor, eat hot wings, gamble, watch sports, burn brush, ride horses, chase chickens, choke chickens, hike, go to the circus, cuss at your mom, make homebrew beer, bake cookies, trap mice, look at porn, plow snow........but we are not allowed to HUNT!

I never understood this either!

If you live in a non-Sunday Hunting county, get involved now. If you don't lend a hand to your neighbors.

So ban Sunday fishing in the counties you can't hunt in and then put it back on the ballet

Next election phase, in the counties that don't have Sunday hunting, get involved and get it on the ballot for a vote to change it.

However, if you push to ban fishing on Sundays, we are going to have a serious problem. :^)

Why ? I don't think there should be fishing on Sunday's. No difference than hunting. It offends me that people fish on our public waters on Sunday.
