New Forum members almost every day now?

[Bill Kiene semi-retired]

We still have lots of guests every day.

I am inviting anyone to register because it has advantages.

Free Classified is one big one.

You can ask questions.

Or give us a fishing report.

It is amazing that it has lasted around 27 years now....?


Some day before I pass on to the big trout stream in the sky I need to get a protégé to take over the Forum?

It's worth stating (at least in my and I know in more than a few other's opinions as well) that unlike many other bulletin board / forums, this one is nearly always civil and except for fishing related issues (such as water access, protecting river flows, etc) is mostly nonpolitical. Whether that's a result of the moderators oversight or simply a natural characteristic of the members, it's one of the main reasons I like this forum. Trollers, argumentative, arrogant trouble-makers without anything useful to say just aren't tolerated. When someone asks a question or is looking for some help or advice, they nearly always get at least one response and the responses are sincerely intended to help, not someone simply advertising their own ego. The classifieds are also one of the most extensive and smoothly run. Thanks go to Bill and the moderators for the above. May it never change.

Thanks DLJ

A fact.....over the 30 years that we had a fly fishing shop we never received a bad check !!!

Fly fishers and Golfers are pretty honest folks.

Ha ha, There's a sentence I didn't think I'd hear, ever.

I did not mean that they didn't lie about their catch or scores.

Yeah, I do both and there's a lot of good natured chicanery goes on in both those hobbies.
