Hello there fellas,
just wanted to again say hello to everyone. Finally spring has arrived and we can get out to blow of the winter blues. Many of you have commented on the site about how user friendly it is. All we have to do now is us it.
One of the ways we can help each other is to put a post up on how your last trip was. Everyone has the good days out there that we like to post about, but sometimes we run into the bad ones to. They happen, thats fishing. Nobody kills them out there all the time. By posting about the good days, and yes, those bad days we try to forget about, we can all be helped by sharing the information. The new fishermen, the old fishermen, we all have one thing in common. WE ALL LOVE TO FISH AND CATCH FISH. So please post and don't feel that your information will not help. If we all share we can all narrow things down some and make what we all share in even more enjoyable for everyone.

Good morning to all,

Information sharing and trolling the site are something all non for profit sites go thru. It is to bad that everyone doesn't particapate. We all like to catch fish thats why we are on this site. Many of us share our information, with out giving up the bank so to say. But, we are up in membership and down in sharing information. Why????????????????
So you had a bad day, don't feel its worth sharing? That information is good information if it shared so others may try somewhere else, or out deeper. You killed them today? So share what was hot for you and speed indications. Did you do something different with your trolling set up? You can share that type of information, and it may help a new fishermen get on track alittle sooner.
Trollers for info- you know who you are and I do to. Not willing to share but, know how to call on the radio for information!
NO SPEAK ENGLISH, THIS IS A GREAT SITE!I It is moderated by very good fishermen that like to help as much as they can possibly. We will not give actual spots but will give general areas. The rest is up to you. Put all the information together and go fishing and have some fun.

Thanks Split, The Good , Bad & Ugly helps us all out there! As said many times on here try to give a report on all trips out. Rudey

Well said split!

I couldn't have said it better myself Ed!

Thank you gentlemen and yes, you are all gentlemen. How refreshing

Had to toss this out ....

Charlie, I asked you not to share that picture of me.

LOL

I just want to thank everyone who has shared information. As a new guy with a boat and tackle boxes to setup, the details I'm learning in the numerous posts I've read here are already helping me figure out what gear I need to be thinking about as well as what general areas to fish. I'll be coming from Fort Wayne, so I figure most of my trips as I get started will be going out of the Michigan City to New Buffalo area. It looks like, according to the reports I've read, that a lot of readers here go out from the NW side of Indiana. I'm certainly not opposed to driving the truck a little farther to be able to put the boat in a better spot. But for now, I must get decisions made on what and how many tracks and rod holders to install on my boat before I can get up there to wet some lines.
