Isn't it kind of the point for the whole board?

People who enjoy bass fishing sharing and discussing their hobby. Sometimes it's a pic of someone who's proud of what they accomplished. I don't usually post pics either, but don't see anything wrong with it.

I�ve put on a few pounds since then.

That�s a clean looking Skeeter Steezy

What about the one you caught at Athens yesterday. Ever find those brush piles ?[/quote]

The top water bite never slowed down enough to make me want to look. Must have caught 20 4 pound bass. All on a frog. Caught 6 really nice ones in the cove right behind the marina on a whacky rig senko.

Found some tires im gonna try some day.

The big one from Athens was two weeks ago. Lol.


This pic is for "Frank" ! Now everyone drive 100mph to Athens. It's on fire! [/quote]

Sure is, Steez and I have good taste when it comes to boats.

THE FISH FRANK....LETS NOT LOSE TRACK OF THE POST...ITS THE FISH AND THE FIRE! The lake is on fire, I tell ya!

This ain't a boat pic thread.

Just messing with ya.

People get judgy and opinionated. Good lakes got pressure long before these forums became popular.

Why ask why??

I love to see the success of everyone�s catches, especially when I�m not catching. Motivates me to think deeper and solve the puzzle a better way. It�s excitjng, it�s fun. Life is tough enough, share your damn bass pics without fear of causing a lake to get over fished.

Anyone that plans to fish �x� lake is probably going to fish it regardless of any pics they did or didn�t see. I just don�t think it works like that.

Too many fisherman are however legends in their own minds, bassmaster classic wanna be anglers, and to an extent take this hobby way too seriously, right down to having a MEMORABLE day on the water but then saying �I can�t talk about it or share the experience with you because it�s top secret and don�t want MY waters fished.� Doesn�t seem like a great way to grow the sport, especially when kids are glued to phones and TVs. Everyone should be sharing their success, and teaching others how to do it better.

You also have people who post pics to represent their pro staff or sponsors. #tag this and #tag that. Sometimes its business they post the pics and tag their sponsors and get free stuff or get their tournament entries paid. But everyone else usually does it to brag a little. You can post a pic and not tell the location, too.

Hmmm. Why post pictures? I don't know. I catch quite a few more fish than I post pictures of but once in a while it's cool to share. Like stated above, it's what the forum is for. Maybe you should do a study on the effects of someone telling about a great day on a certain body of water on a certain spot then go there the next day and see how many boats show at said spot. Wow seems kinda silly huh? I don't see anything wrong with it.

I just noticed there is a thread now on Aquilla and a 34lb.bag. Wonder if there is going to be a noticeable uptick in traffic. I doubt it.

Did you count yourself as one of the 12 on your phone?
