Hey guys,
I am new at salmon fishing, and new to this board. I have noticed however that you all really frown on "crackers". From what I understand, these are basically people who are new to the sport. Like myself, we don't know as much as the rest of you. I am sure that there was a time when you all didn't either. I am in the military and love to fish. I really like this board becuase it has helped me to produce fish when I can find the time to go. I just find it amazing how you all are quick to judge people before you know the entire story. I am sure that there are guys that go out just to snag, in fact I have recently ran into one, and found it quite stupid. But, like in the military, if I know something and see someone doing something wrong, I pass the word. I guesse the point is, help people out. If you don't, even in the case of fishing, the result can be catastrophic. Not only to the anglers, but also to the sport. We could get cut off at any time from what I understand. All becuase some people wouldn't help another angler out. Please don't take this the wrong way, just help us new guys out. I love fishing, and don't want to be the one getting fished out. Thanks for the understanding!
