It may not tell where to catch a single fish, it will tell me where I have had success at certain flows, and what rivers to look at at certain time periods, The river I chose today, knowing the flows, I targeted certain areas, And we pounded them, in areas and only a few else considered. Another 200cfs lower and they will not hold there. This is where the journal comes in handy.

lol... Think I'll start taking notes and 50 yrs from now when all our rivers are finally shut down I can title my new book " The diaries of a fishing nerd who fished with training wheels, bent metal, and never got paid or laid"

Opinions are like A55holes, everybody's got one. If you like to go over notes from years past, good for you -- If you disdain that process, fine. Different strokes for different folks! Me, I like to keep a record of fish caught, size, time of tide, depth etc, and the Puget Sound Tidelog is a nice place to keep the notes. Why trash someone who doesn't think like you???
