i have a fish finder, i catch and post fish (sometimes, nobody really likes my surf reports.

) and have never been with a guide.
with the sporties loading up, there's obviously no reason to post all the catches. especially if the parking lot is full at 6am but the bite is wide open at 5pm when you and only two other yaks are out there. why would you post a sunset pic with a fresh fish? better to wait a month or two and tell just your buddies. Too many lurkers on the interwebz and Private messaging works wonders.
