After the "conditions check" it is nice to know a bit more detail. I have actually learned a great deal from this site and also met some great people. I don't expect to find coordinates or anything like that, im looking for a pattern of what worked.

A few things i have learned about v bay:
1.Someone, somewhere is catching fish. Somedays its you, somedays its not.
2.Even though you caught em here yesterday doesn't mean they will be there today.

Its disappointing to know that people will do a BS posts but this is the internet after all..
As much as I agree with Marque about how frustrating it is that any decent "report" thread will get about 2,000 views and almost not comments (that's one of my biggest frustrations too), you just hit the nail on the head about the BS posts. There's a few of the guys on this site that I see out there fishing. If they fish outside of the pass, they'll post a report showing what they caught at Weeks Bay. If they fish at Weeks, they'll post a report about the west side of the bay. And they'll even lie about the bait and the depth. Even though I can't stand the potlickers who are just on here for free info without anything to contribute, the BS posts are even worse. I hate that I have to be a weekend warrior, but with a demanding job and kids at home, there's only a little time for fishing. I'd like to know that my fellow fishermen are not trying to send me on a wild goose chase, and then I'll get on after the trip and pay it forward to the next guy with an informative post. There's plenty of fish out there.
