Not insulting?

Pal and the BWE crew put alot of time, effort, and time (=$) into what they do for enjoyment because they obviously want to give back to the sport they love. An incredible amount of info is given out, free of charge.

I am not affiliated with BWE, did not partake in the event, but still got to enjoy all that was accomplished. And it was all 'free speech'.

But to blame an article, or an event, on the demise of certain species, and to accuse an event of giving out too much info on where the migratory fish are, I would consider that going beyond opinion and free speech.

But I wonder if the article in the LOG contibuted to this noticible decline.

But I am concerned that you were so happy about PAL's article. I know that it must feel personally gratifying to have the attention and the approval of a media article.
I used to fish LJ when there was no such thing as kayak fishing, and when LJ was a parking lot, full of boats. It has always been there, just some years are better than others, and I have not seen more WSB catches in the past years, all because of the WSB hatchery program.

Free speech is one thing, but to suggest an article, or event, would ultimately cause the demise of catches of certain species, pacify egos, or draw too much attention to an area, esp. by slow moving craft is hilarious.

News flash: A PBer caught a YT off LJ...you don't think that gets plastered all over the PB boards, fish counts, Log, or WON?

Free speech, personal opinion is one thing. Again I reiterate. To suggest that an article, or an event, is unwarranted and should not be brought to light because of the media attention, that it will lessen the fish counts, or give out locations of migratory fish, would you not consider that to be censorship :?:
