I have been fishing for almost two years now and I still feel like a total Noob, I am ever learning and will continue to learn from the posts and experiences of other kayak anglers. I learn from talking, watching, and asking questions, as well as "gleaning" from the boards. So far it has not helped me catch anything!
But, I do greatly appreciate those that openly share their knowledge and experience with those of us that are still learning. If it weren't for the "crowds", the industry would leave all of us without the gadgets, toys, mothership trips, comradeship, and great stores like OEX, AYS, etc.

To those that do not wish to share... Good for you, none of us should feel any pressure to do, or post anything we don't want to! Except Brad... He needs a handicap of some kind anyway!! We are all out there to enjoy, soak in the beauty, the atmosphere, and, oh ya, to fish!

Post if ya want to...
Don't post if ya don't want to...

Posting of fish reports versus tips and tricks are different. I don't have a problem posting and sharing info about what knots are best, what brand or # of line, what lures work and so on. When I first started some very generous people helped me when I was a newbie and I am thankful for that. The boards are a great resource, and almost all questions have been answered already if you look through the archives.

As for my feelings on fish reports, I already commented on that.

what would be better for kayak fishing?
A scrambler or scupper pro?
What is a PFD and do I have to have one?

haha- flash backs to "old school" yakfishing dayz.
I feel old. Is that board still alive?

fwiw- I really enjoy other peoples reports good or bad...it helps getting through the day when I can't be on the water! I'm stoked for others that catch fish!!!
I enjoy "soul fishing" reports the most. Leave the location & details out, just wanna hear relaxing cool laid back stories.

** I look forward to Andy's before work bay report. That always gets me fired up.

I wish I had something positive or a good fishing story to report.

That site is still alive. I thought it would have died by now.

The first documented fishing reports were posted on the walls of caves. Some of the prophets were fisherman and reported about their catch in the Bible. The one thing that is for sure, when you boys stop posting this place will dry up and fade away just like yakfishing.com did.

Post if you have something to say or a question to ask.

I would love to post a report but I have been on such a dry spell this year I have nothing to report. I read other reports and that is enough to keep me going out in the hopes of catching “The Big One” to tell you all about.

I like to hear what people have to say and really like being able to help someone else out, if I can.

Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between good natured ribbing and a total A-Hole but in general most people who respond mean well. We have a great group of people on the site and I look forward to sharing the water with you.

I've gotten a lot of information on here over the past week, and I greatly appreciate the help. Everyone has been very generous with there knowledge. To me thats what these boards are for. If someone wants to give me more info then grate if not thats good to, with time on the water I will gain that knowledge. I love to be out on the water,Im at peace when Im fishing.Cant wait to meet some of you.
