Thanks for asking me to refer to the other reply
This was my reply to that post!

You are right, you probably would kick my a$$ in a boxing match! But before you were done with me you sure would know that I was there!

It's really not that hard for a guy that is 25 years younger to beat up a guy that is 56, but I am sure that you can find a way to debate that one too. But if you want to debate fishing issues, let's go for it kid!

As for you 4Salt,

You are right!
When a person makes over 700 posting, he is surely going to get a few like you pretty excited, especially when they disagree about many issues. You are also right when you said that I was passionate and outspoken. Apparently, in your mind those are bad qualities. That's funny, because that is the exact same way that I feel about you.

You're also right about me loving hatcheries and bonking hatchery fish! What's so bad in your mind about that? You say that I "?love to peek into board members profiles, and try to use the information that you find to discredit the opinion of the poster that you dislike." Well if you put that information in your profile for us to read, what do you have to fear?

You can read my profile and do as you may with it. I have put myself and the view of and in front of the public for the last 17 years concerning fishing issues. That's why your worded attacks on me are so darn funny! On a score of 1-10, your attacks might make a 6.

You should spend the time and read my 700 plus posts. You will find that I am consistent with what I say, regardless if you agree with me or not. Again, 4Salt, I will agree with you that I have "got nads accusing anyone of "Furthering their agenda."

You're also right that I am probably more guilty of that than ANYONE else on the board! But almost every post (over 700) that I have made, concern fish or fish-law related issues. If I am wrong, show me!

Finally, 4Salt, apparently our chemistry just doesn't mix to well, but we should both try to correct that problem. Are you game... I am!

P.S. thanks for the good words Darin!
