You ole pro TFF'ers help a brother out. Do you guys use the search feature on TFF when you are looking for something in particular? Is it me or does anyone else feel like a complete imbecilic moron when using this? I can search a particular topic (change the span of search, title of search, criteria, words in the search, by title only, all that stuff) and when I get the results of my search, there is NOTHING that comes up even remotely close to what I typed in?? In fact, its almost as if it's a 'joke" the TFF is playing on me!! Please tell me this happens to you guys as well. If not, please do spill the beans on how this thing works and expose me as the idiot I feel like.

Try this for example- Type in Texas Team Trail. (EZ enough right) Lets say you want to see everything related to Texas team trail on the TFF. So you search all forums. After clicking search, tell me what comes up? I get 25 threads that have absolutely NOTHING to do with Tx Team Trail. What do you get?

Yep, there has to be a better search engine

Put these " around it. Search "Texas Team Trail"

I have probs searching as well.

OK, good. Early polling suggests that I have not lost my mind.

That is a BIG improvement Derek, thanks!! At least I am in the ball park now.

65,000 posts!! Yeah, Derek knows his way around the TFF.

Yes, but it wasn’t the cause. I felt that way long before I used the TFF Search function.

You may need to visit the "Rough Fish/Carp" Forum, but I hear it's by appointment only!!

Duck Hunter is the search engine pro. Ask him.

No

curiosity killed the cat/john wayne, the searchers.



I think

I’ve never tried to search

The search feature is quirky at best and I’m being kind

I sometimes have better luck using google and putting something like this in the search box: texasfishingforum tawakoni

I've not been able to figure it out.
