Commented in Appeals court says House can obtain Trump's taxes from the IRS | CNN Politics
Yeah, if the had a need for them, maybe. Not a partisan witch hunt or even a fishing expedition.
Of course the IRS won't wait for the SCOTUS appeal, they've probably already turned them over.
MSM will have them by Friday.

Commented in 6G will hit the market around 2030 amid the expansion of the 'industrial metaverse,' Nokia CEO says
I understand that, but a lot of what those tech-ceo's predict ends up in the vertical archive. And even if there will be a metaverse of some sorts, I really do not feel like joining that hype. Not because I wouldn't like it, it'll be entertaining in a way or at least some nice new things to learn about technology, but because I value real life. Be it interaction with other humans or making art, non-digital reality is where the real fun is. And yes, maybe I will miss the boat with some sort of business or moneymaking, but I do not care. Same with NFT's: I didn't join that movement and it saved me a lot of time and trouble, since that market crashed pretty significantly, just because of the amount of bullshit that people are "creating" and trying to sell. Compare it to a pond with a few fish in it: if you're the first with a fishing rod, chances are high you catch something. When a kazillion others join the fishing party, chances are zero catching something.

Commented in Ocean Shock: Fish Flee the Carolinas as Waters Warm. People lose out.
Looking at the economic changes in certain industries, like fishing, is a much better indicator of whether climate change is real, than listening to a "yes it is" "no it isn't" debate.

Commented in PC students demand white philosophers be dropped off university course
" The answer to these injustices, however, must be critical engagement and a push for diversity. It cannot be another “whitewash”."
A much more ephemistic way of addressing the subject, writing is like going fishing. It takes different bait to attract.

Commented in Outdoor Giant Bass Pro to Acquire Rival Cabela’s for $5.5B
The worst possible news, I figure it's only a matter of months now before all the fine Cabella branded fishing equipment gets tossed for Bass Pro branded inferior version. I don't know about other stuff in the store's though, I just know the Cabella combos are better than bass pro, guess it's time to go Ugly Stik.

Commented in Dentist who killed Cecil the lion breaks silence
Do with your sympathies what you will. Since you ask, though — no, this recidivist convicted poacher deserves no sympathy.
Here’s the interview this report skims.
He claims he didn’t know he was killing a beloved lion. That’s a remorseless notpology. The line that he, his lawyer and his PR guy lay out at that interview can be summed up as “I already got away with this, and I’m kind of a big deal around here. Poor, poor me.”
You say that he thought his poaching was “fully legal.” He actually doesn’t make this claim in the interview. His lawyer says it was [technically] legal, and credits the professional poachers Palmer hired for it being successful. When you say fully legal, you’ve got to be overlooking that this trophy-hunter went to a farm to hunt lions. Do you think there may have been some thought given to the wildlife sanctuary next to that farm? This guy has been convicted before, in this country, of killing bear without a license and fishing without a license. You know, poaching. Somehow, on a ~$50K+ hunting trip to Zimbabwe, he’s just going to patter around a bucolic farm for a while? C’mon.
As for whether he’s had his and his family’s lives destroyed by what you call ‘vigilantes,’ I’d say he seems to be in pretty good shape. So some kids dressed in lion costumes protested at his office a while back. There were a couple protesters when he went back to work all business-as-usual. It’s not like his head’s mounted on a wall in a dentist’s office somewhere.

Commented in A Broken Well Has Been Leaking Oil Into The Gulf Of Mexico For The Last 10 Years
This is exactly why I don't eat gulf seafood any more. When I was in college, I scored a job working some oil rigs in the gulf for a summer. It paid really well, but most of the experienced rig workers told me blowouts and spills were common place and often covered up. In fact the only real difference with Deppwater Horizon was that the damn thing sunk and people died, so it got publicity. Basically they told me the gulf sea floor is likely a wasteland at this point.
And given how liberally the corexit was used in DH, I just don't eat gulf seafood, or seafood that may come from the gulf anymore, which sucks because I LOVE fish, and fishing. But now im mostly catch and release.

Commented in There's Something About Bernie
It pretty much is. Iraq was quite certainly a mistake but things like fishing up refugees out of the mediteranean or protecting ships from pirates in Somalia are also done by military vessels. I'm certainly not a fan of unnecessary military action and dabbling in regions that should be left alone but there is a lot of stuff some large military force is needed for. Either that's the US or other countries have to step up their game. In this time isolationism isnt really an option anymore.

Commented in SeaWorld sees profits plunge 84% as customers desert controversial park
It really is sad to go to those places for me.
For example where I fish there is a pod of dolphins I regularly see. There are even times they help me fishing, kinda, they will encircle the schools and drive them to the surface or weedlines and ledges I fish, and boom im hooked up and pulling in mackerel, trout, permit left and right and hit my limit in 20 minutes after having been out there for hours.
Often they will ride the bow of my boat when im running the edge of the flats, and when I see them coming toward me ill pull off plane, and they will often come dart right by the boat and do jumps and crazy shit. It really is a sight to see and my wife and kids will sometimes come fishing (or some out later) just to see the pod being dolphins.
Even my 5 year old noticed the difference between them and the ones at the Atlanta Aquarium. He said "they look so bored and sad". yeah they do, and that's why we don't go to most aquariums anymore.

Commented in REPORT: Olympians At 2016 Games Will Be Swimming And Boating In Contaminated Waters
The issue is most of these cities don't have proper sewage containment systems. They are literally dumping their waste directly into the water in lots of places. Brazil being called out for this is a good thing. There was once a prosperous fishing community in the late 1970s across the bay called Sao Goncalo. Now it's just a water dump from shipyards and industry waste.

Commented in 'Sea Slaves': The Human Mysery That Feeds Pets and Livestock
Will you please post this in /t/fish?
This is such an evil way to treat fellow human beings. Supporting aquaculture is one of the few things consumers can do to about this situation. The article says that most of the fish exported by Thailand ends up in pet and livestock feed. It is good to know that some companies are trying to make the move to more sustainable sources, including farmed seafood. Apparently MARS is one of these companies. Lets hope they stay committed and others move in that direction.
In interviews, those who fled recounted horrific violence: the sick cast overboard, the defiant beheaded, the insubordinate sealed for days below deck in a dark, fetid fishing hold... Short-handed at the 11th hour, captains sometimes take desperate measures. “They just snatch people,” one captain explained, noting that some migrants are drugged or kidnapped and forced onto boats... Former deckhands described “prison islands” — most often uninhabited atolls, of which there are hundreds in the South China Sea. Fishing captains sometimes maroon their captive crews on those islands, sometimes for weeks, while their vessels are taken to port for dry docking and repair... Fishing boat workers on an Indonesian island called Benjina were kept in cages to prevent them from fleeing

Commented in Now that's just cheeky
Man, it sounds like it wasn't technically against the rules, but from what they said of the rules (the actual rules havent been released yet), it said something like "no fishing line, ball bearings, etc.". The etc part I think definitely covers it, or at least gives the judges plenty of lee way to say it is against the rules. I think the rematch was the right call. Though from what I remember of the rematch, they were both pretty shitty, but I'm glad a team that would rather take such a cheap shot instead of win with a good bot arent going through.

Commented in Palau burns Vietnamese boats caught fishing illegally

Commented in U.S. takes first steps to ease Cuba embargo
Thank you! I will try not to fall into the ice while I drunkenly walk around looking for good fishing spots (man I need to get me a gas powered ice auger) :D
As for the pipe & tobacco, I don't believe I have, I'm not exactly a smoker per-say but I do enjoy a good cigar or two when I go into the wild for some away from the home time.
