a closed fishing post opt in place would be a great idea! Just as a suggestion, I belong to a huuuuge forum for reefkeeping (saltwater fish tanks) and they have many options available to forum members who meet a certain amount of posts... and they also police people so that they don't get to the 50 posts by saying "nice tank!" and "cool" 50 times in random forums. Maybe we could have something like that? I know I only have a few posts but I think that maybe a minimum post requirement should be set, or some other kind of way of getting people into a forum area where people can feel more comfortable and "loose" about talking and sharing experiences and pictures. Not only would that help protect places, but if most of us posted our experiences and photos there, we wouldn't have to doctor photos so much. Just an idea, what do you guys think?
"The real truth is, convincing a fish to strike is like playing string with a cat: the exact size and color of the string is probably less important than how you wiggle it. And little cats are easier to fool than big ones." - John Gierach
