It was an easy decision to make based upon the normalcy of the times and a better bunch of fishermen overall. Little did we ever realize that things would go the way they have done along with the cell phone call line when the fish were in action. When you look at the scenes where every one is stacked together and casting all over the place, that would have never happened for to long in the times when I was really walking the shore lines with the likes of Bob Pond, Bob Black Peter Cochis , and Stan Gibbs and Kusia They would have gone for a swim on the second attempt. theshadow 1 Life member M.B.B.A #509 Life member Izaak Walton Fishing Association Life member Cape Cod Canal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to know precisely how dumb you are before or if I respond substantively. Massachusetts EPO: 1-800-632-8075 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob_G Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 Overcrowding and bad fishermen behavior is nothing new on the canal. It's been going on for generations. Why do you think the ACOE installed all those gates in their parking areas? In the late 1960s many parking areas were open to daylight hours only. If it wasn't for a year of hard work by my sainted mother, and the help of Sen. Ted Kennedy, it might still be closed today. theshadow and Peelin' Drag 2 The Sultan of Sluggo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdc23 Posted July 5, 2019 Report Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) I would assume a couple people running the facebook fishing groups are profiting handsomely while destroying a natural resource. Edited July 5, 2019 by gdc23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scene was beyond belief. Shoulder to shoulder on the waterline, with guys shoulder to shoulder on the road casting over them. The crossed lines were epic. The screaming and yelling made pro wrestling seem tame. Everyone running around with fish, hiding them everywhere. At some point the police will have to intervene. I agree with this. I was 200' down from this all week and I'm shocked i saw not one officer patrolling or inspecting anything the two weeks I was here theshadow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kones1, You are entitled to your opinion, but as moderator of this site, so am I. So be advised. In the last two years, and possibly more, there have been no canal reports on the Ma Forum that I'm aware of. In spite of incredible massacres taking place, Ma Forum nembers have shown remarkable restraint in keeping things quiet and respectful. So point your accusatory elsewhere and not here please. R.R.
