The funny thing about chatrooms is that, while the theme of the chatroom does quite often come up, the conversation usually isn't entirely limited to the theme ONLY. Just like when a bunch of folks get together to go fishing, sometimes the conversation drifts to items other than the task at hand.

Now, this doesn't mean that you cannot just jump in and ask a fishing-related topic. On the contrary, there are normally some great sources of regional fishing knowledge present and willing to share with you what they know. All you have to do is jump right in and ask the question and I'll bet that someone will answer it.

Give it a try, Paranoid (hey, you called yourself that...not me!). Online chatrooms take some getting used to but once you get the hang of it then they do pretty well.

Of course, calling the folks who inhabit these chatrooms "trash" won't win you any brownie points but I'm sure they'll look past it if you provide them with nudie websites...er...great fishing tips.
