Erik, I guess some people enjoy fishing in crowds, however if you polled most fisherman, at least the ones who know better, If they found river or run that fished well with less people chances are they would prefer to keep it that way, the exception are the braggers. Some of the places I enjoy the most are places I learned based on hunches, hiking, floating and driving, a lot of work and time. You tell me, I am selfish or secretive for not "sharing" with all the other anglers on the internet I don't know from adam. Yes, I had uncles and others who showed me the way, but that's not the point, it's your uncle or long time fishing partner sharing one on one, not broadcasted over the WORLD WIDE WEB to the whole fishing community. There's too many fisherman anymore who want instant gratification without putting forth the effort to break the code themselves. I read Bob's board, because I find the topics interesting, but I cringe when I see someone bragging about a piece of water or directions to a paticular spot, even the ones I don't fish. In my opinion, I believe the free wheeling sharing of "where to" on the internet has played one part in the crowds we have seen in the last few years. Question, How many of you fished the peninsula before this board came around?
