[quote windriver]I don't want to come off sounding like a horses rear end so please take this in the spirit that it is intended.
I don't have time to respond to every post and know that you don't either, but if you would just show appreciation for the education, entertainment, information that you get from this board it would go a long way towards making BFT that much better.
I figure there are about 20 regular posters, 20 time to time posters, and 300-500 regular lurkers. As you know some of regulars are getting fed up with all the taking without even giving thanks.
Lets be the kind of people who tip when we eat out, share when we can and give thanks when we are entertained, educated or informed on BFT. An attitude of gratitude will go along ways towards keeping this a fun place to visit.
Just my two cents.

Not knowing what time to time means, I believe I fall in the 300 to 500 catagory. I dont mind being a lurker on the meat board.
WR, I have read your posts and you appear to be a great guy.
This is the meat board because I have seen too much detail displayed on this board that is having a negative impact on our fisheries.
I will share techniques, times of year, depth's, colors and maybe even bait but I would will not share specific water on this site unless it is in the form of a PM.
I will share my experience on how to run portions of rivers I know for the sake of safety, and do not need to hear any thanks.
But it wakes me up in the middle of the night when I read posts suggesting we plant Walleye in certain lakes, encourage people to wear guns during salmon and steelhead season, post GPS coordinates of one of my favorite crappie holes, etc, etc
We must realize that posting this stuff on a wide open place such as the meat board, changes the game....in a negative way.
