Most people only have to get kicked in the teeth 1 time to learn there lesson. It SaltyCajun a few years to learn that posting reports means tons of potlickers.

Potlickers are there whether you post or not so that shouldn't stop anyone from posting. I have been told to watch what I post but potllickers are actually rare.

I would suggest lures or techniques, and only mention areas that you fish. That info could be the the difference for someone taking their kids out and having a great time.

I would hope more people would post, but it is disappointing that so many people don't.

PS Great job Clampy!

Good reports make for more ppl on the water forsure! and they study your photos to find out where you were. Just look at any report made now. you will have 5 replies and 400 views. This is 100% the reason why most of us dont post reports anymore.

The reports section seems to be for guides to advertise how much fish they catch. I don't even read reports posted by guides because they tell me nothing. When I post a report I try to be as helpful as possible without giving the exact location. I bet if fishing reports were restricted and only able to be viewed by users who have posted a report in the last month or so there would be a greater exchange of information. I don't mind sharing some tips with someone who is serious about fishing, but I think there are lots of Salt Lifer's on here just looking for a short cut.

I agree with out 100% and the report section shouldnt be able to be viewed by guests.... Id say reports should only be able to be viewed by Premium members that help support this forum.

That's not really true

I post info about what I caught then on and sometimes areas , I'm sure not going to post GPS spots or tell you exactly on the internet

Most guides put in years and years of fishing that cost us lots of money to do , and people pay us to take them fishing so I'm not going to risk an area or spot to be flocked with people

I have helped tons of people on this site over the years so before you label it as "guides"
It's not all if us
