1. Cleanup or have the 12 or so listed sponsors update/ participate.

2. Bring back the season long tournament and the 4 leg tournament.

Have the get togethers and people will go. Folks can't get together if there isn't anything planned formally. If the chief is too busy lets get some folks who like to do this sort of planning to set up the legs, run the tourney etc. AND we can discuss this over some wings and hooters

My first interaction with anyone from this site was salt heart mentioning a gathering at weekapaugh bait and tackle. I showed up and have been heckling everyone ever since

i originally came to the site because i needed more info on how to catch fish from shore. i started tossing frozen macs with an ugly stick and drinking beer on my beach chair at night. i've come a long way but still need to learn more.

haven't seen many posts as of late about fishing technique, good plugs to try, bass behavior, new gear, etc. i learn something new every season and i'm sure most people on the site do too. i think this info may be useful to everyone.

i also consider myself to not be as seasoned as most on the site and don't initiate posts frequently unless it's a question. i lurk a lot.

Strange, that's where I'm heading.

Pure and simple, this site has HUMILITY and CHARACTER/S.

What it doesn't have is a------. I think that's one of the things that
wrecked Surfcaster; there were some obnoxious characters over
there that kind of messed things up. In the 10 years I've followed
this site, I've almost never seen the kind of nasty personal stuff
you see on some of the others (or maybe the moderators have
been quick to kibosh it). That's one reason it's been as good as it
has for so long. But, maybe Facebook is basically now becoming
a black hole which is pulling in all new potential posters. If so, then
this site's days are numbered. But I've sure enjoyed reading the
stuff people have put up here; informative, and often funny too.
A really good bunch of guys.

yeah I agree...maybe "clean up" and/or eliminate some of the stagnant areas like the hunting section. Good Idea at first but not much traffic....things like that. Maybe bring back the legs or at least an gathering here & there. Maybe somewhere that has a pavillion for rent, park with camping, etc.

I for one kind of miss crashing out in Weekapaug B& T parking lot in the fall with the wind cranking & rockin the truck. I swear it was always epic wind everytime I went Everyone getting together to shoot the poop and grill some grub

Simplify.......
