If all the "reports" were like the one that Blair just posted, the site would be a great resource for people looking to learn to fish. Great details on tackle and techniques.
Sadly, a lot of the reports seem to be prima donnas just posting pics of the fish they caught with no info on tackle or techniques, just paranoid someone else might figure out "THEIR" super secret fishing spot.
Absolute bollocks and a complete waste of time for anyone looking for info on how to get started and what kind of gear to buy and use. Why bother posting a so-called report, you would be better of getting yourself a fish pics blog.....
I agree, its sad to see the attitude that some people have. I personally started fishing recently and I`m teaching myself as I go. I use this site and others for information because I don`t know anyone that can teach me. I don`t post because I have little knowledge to offer since I`m still very new at this. I`m very grateful for all the helpful posts that I get to read
Don`t assume everyone lurking is a snagger who can`t wait to take over your honey hole. There's hundreds of thousands of lakes in Ontario, enough fish for everyone. If someone decides to show a revealing picture or name a river its their choice at the end of the day, no reason to get all upset because you frequent the same area.
Just thought I'd throw my opinion here as a novice angler. Not the best idea to make my first post in a controversial topic. o well...
