I've noticed over the last ten years a lot more dis-respect by certain so called anglers. Who dont really go to fish but to make a mess, upset nearby anglers and basically have no respect for any fish they do catch. Some venues are strict, which is good, but im afraid some larger waters where a lake manager is not always at hand can sometimes get very abused. It's a shame...
