This is the Information Age. Yes its the internet but within minutes of someone getting a couple of fish the word goes out over the cel phones and the vulchers swoop in. In fact its a very modern technique to go with say 4 guys , spread them out along the canal , wait for a spot to get going then make the calls to bring the whole hunting party to the hot spot.
Learn to deal with it , it will never change back to the "Old Days".  |

Just another heads up - I saw you posted in the boat forum about getting a 31lb bass on a bunker in narragansetts bay... the title of the thread said the fishing was hot. I told my boat buddies, they know your boat, where you launch from, they'll be hitting up your spots. Just to be safe, I told a handful of my shore buddies to post up all night at the areas you shore fish to make sure we find out if there is a night bite going on. I hope there is because me and all my north shore buddies have vacation in your area next week and we'll be out everynight. Some of my buddies have other buddies that throw tons of trash on the ground, they have no respect for anything, so sorry in advance about the litter in places. In the meantime, I'll be at the canal networking with about a dozen guys I network with down there to figure out where the bite is.  |

so true. PIemma, you don't see the hypocrisy in your thread? Last year when the fall run started in Aug(like it always does) you were quick to point out that the fish were in the canal and only you and a few other guys knew about it( which was incorrect). And it seems like every year you get into fish in the Bay you have to come on here and announce that as well. You are as guilty as anyone, please come to grips with that. Happy your nephew got a 30 though... |

He is right the place was an effing zoo even yesterday from the fish posted up on Monday 2 hours after catching. And if you don't think people look at that and fish the next day you are crazy. I had 2 different people tell me Monday afternoon the whole low down on the canal being on fire that don't even fish the canal. They were telling me like they were actually there. They didn't hear from word of mouth or a phone call the read a blog on Facebook. I thins its foolish myself, they couldn't have waited a couple of days to get the glory?

No kidding, whatever happened to slamming 40 pound fish and keeping it quiet and then bragging about it to everyone months later! |

Crowds are no fun, but anyone who can read a tide chart can tell you when the good days will be, Monday the rain helped both the fishing and the crowd control.

You honestly think that more than half of the people down there in the last 2 days can read a tide chart? I highly doubt it. Never-mind half of them still had plastic and price tags on their rods. These people did not read tide charts they read the internet. |

If I ever decide to fish the canal will you come with me? I figure your looks and smell will keep the crowds at a nce, safe distance.  |
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
