Theres not alot of younger guys who are involved in "the scene" on the sites. Im 31 and fish with alot of guys my age, who fish ALOT, but im the only one who frequents this site. Probably becuase i work in an office scene.

Maybe a changing of the gaurd is needed!!

Seems like there's a core group that posts a lot, and not that many
new folks; kind of what things were like in the late 70s before the moratorium
when there were only trophy fish and no schoolies. I have been an occasional
poster the last 10 years, but I have tried to stick to fishing and not other stuff
(I don't think anyone here gives a s--- whether I'm going to my cousins wedding
or not this weekend).

I think Facebook has a lot to do with it. I personally have avoided being on Facebook,
mostly because I believe it's bad policy to put personal information on the Internet,
where anyone can get it and use it. It's clear the site has slipped some, but I don't
think it's in danger of going extinct, like Surfcaster did a couple of years ago. Still,
some new posters would be nice. I note that Reel-time is going downhill too; hardly
any freshwater poster over there any more.
Probably going to be less folks here in the future though; too bad.
