You guys can't make up just yet. I just got the pot stirred enough to get more replies than nearly any inshore report since Jan. Come on now we can make 3 pages.

.. damn trouble maker newbies

Now thats funny, a guy with 28 whole post, is complaining about the lack of post. Wait til he figures out you need a 1000 post to see the private report board.

It is a sad story, but I spend my year Kentucky and live vicariously through the many stories on the board. I'd move down there tomorrow, but have a great job and kids still in school. My parents spends most of the year on SGI, but Dad seems to like grouper fishing above all else and I like the reds and specks. The forum is used as much for information as entertainment. I don't do a whole lot of fishing up here; all I own is a Yak. Besides, other than stipers in Lake Cumberland, freshwater and saltwater don't compare.

Methinks we don't talk politics, women or booze enough!

They are all very important fishing sub-topics!

Hey RHTFISH, lets see if we can get Tom to start an area called "Necessities of Life" where we can talk more bout them thar things.

They then had to go 50 miles in either direction and start over finding new fish.
Some people don't rely on reports.
They do what a boat did today to us.
Ride by and see you go for the net,then shut down 1 cast behind you and start fishing.
We boated the catfish gave each other high 5 and left in a hurry.
Wonder if they caught anything there?

Sounds right to me . Hey Steve.

Hey SS.
We need to go fishing again soon.
In fact,why don't you buy that push pole from SilverKing and pole me around the bay?

Poooof

Careful Doc.
I don't have the veto rights yet.

OOOOOOps...sorry!

If you all will take a minute to stroll over to Off Topic and then scroll to the bottom and sort Off Topic by replies - descending. You will notice OT first page has 218 to 42 replies on the first sorted page. You may also note the topics of discussions in Off Topic. Now stroll back over to Inshore Fishing reports or any other sub forum and sort the same. For Inshore fishing the first page tally is 71 to 34 - also note the authors that are MIA. Now think back to the information you saw earlier in Off Topic. Then think back to when I was asking everyone to reframe from politics and other crap that wasn't really part of a fishing website. What was I told - its Off Topic and we can talk about what we want too - I said fine - you guys have at it. Now think back to the authors that are MIA - they left because of the Off Topic BS....this is not my opinion - this is the words spoken from their mouths. No embellishment on my part - the gospel as it has been told to me by several of the MIA contributors.
