That is completely inconsiderate and disrespectful to the guys who fish it consistently,who don't pay attention to reports, and don't rely on them. Can't you see how frustrating it would be to put in all that time and then have a couple heroes come on here and give everyone a free report? If you can't see that then you are completely oblivious or you could care less. Put in your time and find your own fish...

Exactly Bart. Exactly. I don't mind guys fishing around me. I have dealt with it for 40+ years. What I do mind is the "Paul Reveres of the world announcing "come one, come all.

Stripermaniac, I respect you but you are off base as far as I'm concerned. I DO have 50 different spots to fish in the Ditch. I do talk with a lot of guys but I have my favorites and after I do an 80 mile drive to get to one of my spots at 3:00 AM to find 3 guys with white buckets who don't have a &^%$ clue as to what they are doing, I get annoyed. Clearly they are there because they got a "report".

Crowds are common in the areas close to major parking lots we have to deal with this any "breaking tide". Major spot specific reports are bad for sure, IMO Chris' original post was not a burn. Todays crowd was nowhere near as bad as others this year alone. In fact I havent seen one "specific" spot burn on this site in a long time. The canal being crowded in June is a fact of life.

A long time ago I was taught to fish my own game an if someone copied it take it as a compliment. But above all keep my mouth shut unless i was willing to share my knowledge an teach new guys how to work an area so as we don't step on toes. i love it when i'm fishin a spot for 4 or 5 tides an the bike brigade see's me catchin fish an are in the spot an hr before I get there an crowd it so that I can't fish it. Loads of Gibbs stickers in that bunch. Many never fished it till recent. then I see those same people on here whinin about spot burnin after they commit real poor eticuite an take over someone's quote rock. If a spot is too crowded I move an if someone is fishin near where I wanna fish I ask him if he minds that i fish near him. Amazing how many Canal Friends I've made that way. Some even ended up with one of my experiment to try an I one of theirs.LOL It's about enjoyin the experience an makin a few friends som ewhich will last forever.

Sounds contradictory to what we witnessed you doing on your last trip. My buddy who had just finished catching fish was packing up, you ask him why hes leaving, then jump in your truck, follow him, then get out and immediately start casting your plug over us jigging(making us cut our drifts short. Hypocrisy is awesome LOL

stripermaineiac 06-19-2012 06:31 PM

LOL Well not sure what your talkin about T as all my fishin was off the back of my bike this year an never did cast over others as most times i was either alone with Lee or there before others got there LOL.As far as plugs n jiggin go well plugs about never bother jigs as they're on top an jigs are down deep. Fish both an never have a prob with others fishin out of my hip pocket an same with them.I will say this the only time i drift long is with darters an thats at night. all you day fisherman are home sleepin then . just us old guys an nuts down there at night. LOL.About never see anyone else then, but this grumpy old guy that lives close to the ditch an some day gotta get him to bring some of that good coffee he makes down with him.Love that coffee holder he has on his bike. gotta find one of them. LOL

What a bunch of whining fairies. Not a single one amongst you who does not rely on somebody else's reports. Dopes who throw rocks at people on their rocks....wow am I glad to be in a boat. I will be displaying my white bucket tomorrow for the dbags to cry about.Now I know why NIB quit fishing...grade school BS.Don't forget,at one point we ALL had no clue. I have seen how the IN crowd operates and I am happy to be out of the backstabbing, petty,insecure circle.Bart,don't tell me you make your own reports,same with Victor or Jay.But somehow you all feel you deserve it,or are owed it. In reality we are all in the same boat so to speak,just that some feel as though they have earned their stripes because;A,they put their time in,or B, they have nice gear. Criers and liars and fishermen.

Rappin Mikey 06-19-2012 07:04 PM

What is all this fuss about? I better get to this "ditch" spot and check out what all these crazy people are fighting about!!! People sure are getting crazy about it. I wonder why:confused::confused::rotf2:Man I wish there were no more seals or plovers. Life was so much simpler back then. Penguins is practically chickens after all my friends...... Penguins is practically chickens.:love::love::buds::smash:

1 less googan:rotf2:

angler229 06-19-2012 08:28 PM

I love it you say if a spot is crowded you move but I was one of the guys you were casting your plug over making me cut my drift short as not to tangle you every cast. Total hypocrite :uhuh:. And to say plugs will never bother someone jigging you obviously have no clue as to what your talking about.

Chris, I go out of my way to not ask. I know who to call, I know who to ask. I dont call, I dont find it fair that someone is working their ass off to find fish and I just call. The only person I do call is Patrick and I never ask its mostly I was here and such but never where are they etc.

I do CAMP! I'll CAMP A SPOT LIKE A MUTHA #^&#^&#^&#^&ER! :vamp:

Hey Matt when you going to fish the canal again so we can laugh at Lawrence.

Vic pay NO attention to the man behind the curtain. He's chumming and it's easy to bite and fight back. No need to. Just fish your azz off all season and bring those frigging portogreekingspanish fried things to Bob's house.

You talking about the rubber squid (from a bar) that I found on the rocks the other day? Or the tube and worm thing a guy was casting last year from the rocks with a 6 ft boat rod?:rotf2:

ProfessorM 06-19-2012 08:56 PM

Matt Did I say that? I am just a googan what the hell do I know so I may have.
