Scary to think it is really getting that bad, not to mention i had to stop someone a little further down the jetty who was attempting to remove the hook by hand as if he was going to grab onto a small bass!

One fish that I almost find it impossible to spot are the big eyes. You'd think being bright red would make them stand out but I have a really hard time spotting those buggers.
