Extreme Philly Fishing, P.O. BOX 7019, Philadelphia, PA, 19149
December 5th, 2016 -- After 5 years of fishing in and around Philadelphia, another odd story to share with you guys! But before anything else, here are the hyperlinks that I have mentioned in the video:
Pastorius Park Dog bite story:
www.chestnuthilllocal.com/2016...
Pastorius Park fishkill story:
www.chestnuthilllocal.com/2016...
Anyways...as always, Extreme Philly Fishing decided to hit a new watershed to do a full Multi-Species fishing assessment. My first time ever in Chestnut Hill, I decided to hit Pastorius Park for some Catfish and Carp! After hearing the news of a fish kill that happened there this past Summer, I was really really curious to see if anything was still alive in there.
So...there was Leo, fishing for some good old fish in a PUBLIC PARK, when suddenly...some angry residents decided to kick me out because "fishing is not welcome in the community."
P.s. Make sure you read the afterword in this video, so you know the purpose of it.

Only if the water is linked to a natural water supply and they can get out, might it be considered invasive. Many park ponds are designed as ornamental waters. One should expect gold fish in ornamental waters - more readily gold fish than any other specie. No true angler would even dream of fishing an ornamental which this one so obviously is.

I was followed by the cops, for riding my mountain bike on some trails, in the woods, in a public park, in Maryland. I asked why they were stopping me, they said because I was acting suspicious. I asked how so, they said I kept going around the one mile loop😂🤣🤣😆. I said, oh, that's not allowed??? Then came the back pedaling on their part, "well that section over there is typically very crowded with bird watchers, you may be scaring their birds if you keep riding through..." Lol... , I said, oh, over there, where no one is...😂😆 I love gentrified society. It's less about you fishing, than about you being a stranger, in their "public park" I woulda called the cops on them, for harassment ,and no leash laws. Always get name, rank, and serial number of the commanding authorities bugging you,it instantly scares them off. Learn the local police chiefs name, or some political figures names,before you go into communities, then name drop, see how badass ms.big pants aesthetics thinks she is then😁

They are not native fish and the fish that are native to this area cannot survive with these fish in there so therefore they are destroying the ecosystem of this pond. Whoever put them in there was breaking the law. I'm not sure about Pennsylvania but in most states you need a permit to put fish in any body of water, even if it's on your own property. Try putting any fish in a lake in New Jersey and get caught and see what happens to you.

nah, just i notice that when im fishing people always glance at the asian fishermen and make racist comments. people always assume that asians keep all their fish and break the law. I know its a stretch but i dont think he was doing anything wrong

I don't think I will ever go back to that place, Evan Warwick. And it is not even because fishing is not welcome there. During my short stay in Pastorius Park, I saw more than 10 unleashed dogs running amok. Crazy stuff. I am not risking myself getting bitten by one of them. LOL. Tight lines and thanks for watching!

I really respect the way that you fish and how you react to people, especially these types, and their opinions on fishing. It was very mature of you to leave out of courtesy, while fishing there is legal. Though you could have stayed and they couldn't do anything about it, that was a great example of how you should avoid conflicts over fishing and the residents that don't agree with you.

A friend of mine owns a house and some property that borders a golf resort in Florida. Between the two is a pond that he owns, and the banks around it. He allows the neighborhood kids to fish there if they promise to catch and release, but the golfers are always trying to kick the kids off the property and get butt hurt when someone fishes there. I don't know what there problem is, but they can be aggressive at times. We were having a BBQ and some beer and they tried to kick him and me off his own property when we were catching some bluegill there. It was not a pretty sight.

I had a similar thing happen to me while fishing in one of the local parks around my area. Maple Park in Currituck County NC is the name of the place if you ever want to check it out. It actually used to be a landfill until everything was covered over with dirt and properly sanitized. After they had dug out the area to cover the old landfill they decided to stock the pond they had created with local fish like small and large mouth bass, bluegill, red breast sunfish, green sunfish, different types of shiners, and white and yellow perch. They allowed people to fish there as long as they did catch and release. Sadly it has mostly been taken over by turtles so almost every cast you do with live bait on it gets attacked by the turtles, but I digress haha. Well one day I was fishing there when an older lady came up who happened to be feeding the geese, and told me that she was going to call the cops on me because I wasn't allowed to fish there. Her reasoning was that this was private property. I calmly explained to the woman that this was in fact not private property but property owned by the state and maintained by the county. I was free to fish there as long as I did catch and release. She wasn't pleased by this response and actually called the cops. A sheriff's deputy showed up and explained to her that fishing there was in fact legal, and that the county actually encourages it. I told the deputy that I didn't want to cause any trouble and that if it meant that much to her I would leave. She got mad at me for this and called me a "condescending little prick." I simply laughed it off got my poles out of the water and left. She only stayed for about another 10 minutes anyway, and I had already decided to wait her out and just go back whenever she left.
