Guest Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 Over the years I have done a lot of fishing for "Jacks" in northern Canada and have noticed a kind of disdain or dislike of them by local people, and have found many trophy northerns with their throats slit or cut up the belly and left to die a slow agonizing death. Now I'm not trying to tell anybody what to do, or start any arguments, I just want to know why this is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemlock Posted January 2, 2003 Share Posted January 2, 2003 I've heard of people not being excited over jacks aka-northers, pike, snakes, hammer handles...but I've never heard of the cruel and unusual punishment like that. Weird.------------------Hemlock"Throw'm back" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZ Posted January 3, 2003 Share Posted January 3, 2003 I think the reason for killing jacks is because of all the attacks that are documented in canada of people losing there toes while swimming in those northern canadian waters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
