: ==================
: In defense of "huntsfish" not all cemetery ponds are off limits. Remember there were no 'no fishing' signs up. Resurection(sp) has two ponds and they don't mind any anglers being there. In fact some workers actually stock fish so people can enjoy themselves(at least they were stocking a few years ago). Why would you resent someone enjoying themselves in a cemetery. Does enjoying oneself degrade the respect for the deceased???? Heck my grandparents are buried by a river that has a fishing pier right at the cemetery. Grandma & Grandpa are probably enjoy watching the anglers from the Pearly Gates! My 2 cents....
I wouldn't mind someone enjoying themselves, I just wouldn't want empty worm
containers and Old Style cans all over. Incidently, not seeing a "No Fishing
Sign" does not give you free liscence to fish anywhere.
