The funniest thing about this thread is all the people posting who don't want their spot "blown up" keep posting and putting this thread to the top of the list of threads which actually causes more people to look at it...  |

If ya can figure that out you deserve to clean the pond. Try the lure in the photo I sent you. It's been doing quite well but timing and patience is everything.

Anyone having any luck using cut bait or sand worms on the river? I see a lot of top action but curious to know if anyone is having luck down below.

| You spot burning boys need lighten up. Its the Housontonic river in May, Fisherman magazine made that damn and its surroundings a rock star many years ago. You want to beat the crowds play in the shadows of a moonless drizzling night, lots of room. Don't be crying in the sunshine at noon with a newbie throwing in YOUR spot LOL . Lighten up and have fun, Like we say in Montauk "enjoy the moment" soon it will be December and then THE BRIDGES oh no I spot burned! LOL . |

Yeah! Stick with selfishness and childishness. 
This reads like an ice fishing thread. |
Peco, I f you would please read through my posts in this thread you will see I have done no name calling, issued no personal insults or condemnations of anyone.
I simply suggested that a few guys, who may or may not have been experienced with how very specific information might lead to a proliferation of people in one single spot. As I said, if we all rotate around to where we all know the fish might be at any given time, their will be room for everyone. As I also said previously, if we keep just a little low key about exactly which stretch of the river at a specific tide is producing fish, we will all have good days, as well as some skunkings.
Your personal condemnations and insults are pretty uncalled for.
Pleas quote something I wrote that even resembles a mean spirited attack or condemnation of anyone and I will be happy to apologize.

The best fishing experience I've ever had was helping someone else hook up. I think at the end of the day we can all agree that some of us want others to enjoy the experiences fishing offers and others feel a much greater sense of entitlement. Though I understand space, I just don't understand hindering someone ambitious enough to ask questions, seek answers, and look to gain knowledge in hopes of finding some decent fish. I can't speak for everyone but I catch and release with the intent of having the same fish I caught find your hook someday.
If someone wants to share their knowledge, they should. If you want to keep yours bottled up, then you should. Refereeing the situation is just selfish.
Now let's go fishing!!

Thanks,
You have no idea how many people I, or anyone else here has directed towards a good bite, or how many times I have lent assistance to strangers by helping find a plug, land a fish, carry their gear, And I pulled a guy from the water.... in December once as well.
I made a suggestion to some people, in the most repectful way, and if you want to go read the post I said , "your choice of course? so I merely made a suggestion for which I have been called stupid, selfish. childish , and god knows what else.
So, Pile on i Guess, guess there is a shortage of people to beat on this week.
Thanks,
