Cheers The Power of a Report

I think we need to explain the power of a fishing report! Goods and bad of internet reports!
1. A report is not to give away your spots are locations where you caught fish! If you give that info away that's hurting you!
2. Post a report with minimal but informational details...
a) Water
b) Tide
C) Slow or fast bite
D) early or late bite
3. A report is for you to know a little but not a lot! If you read a report in the paper of magazine its old news!! If a guide gives that report I promise you will never see him or his boat there! Its about how to help but not give!

I have received phone calls and emails about reports! I for one never give any info about where I caught my fish! Nor do I give any info to others but a select few! Trout move day in day out and year to year!!! I have guys tell me to stop posting reports because it brings people.... I had guys ask to pull post because of the size of trout being caught..... Big Lake are any other fishing is no secret...

I have been ask to not post wading pics...but yet there are pics of our locals with trout wading pic on Big Lake all over Texas websites?????( )

use a report for what it is a report! It will not give you GPS spots....but will let you know what to look for in a bite.....

I hope this clears up some views and issuses with some guys
