you all suck

Interestingly, the article on smallmouth fishing did'nt burn any spots. I have caught a lot of fish standing in the spot the author is standing in the pic. I suppose it's my spot.
Maybe some of it is up to the author?

holy SH&^ how you been?

depending on who's writing the article ALL SPOTS ARE FORE SALE !! these spots have been around for a long time and they will be there after we are all long gone
the more important thing here is our right of ways to the shore line they in fact if nothing is done now they will be gone. And that is something we should be angry about..

I'm sorry John I have to give up your secret spot.

Two solutions to this spot burning problem in magazines. Either move further down the beach. You know more than one person can fish there? Or go and fish at night. Of course if you go at 12 in the afternoon the beach will be mobbed.

was at that very same secret spot this morning, nothing much going on, had a swirl behind the plug but not much else.

dear Mike P , Are those 5 Franklin half dollars ? i am in. will also

I've only been shore fishing the last few years. It all started with stupid luck but over time I've put in time and searched the shore for sign and tried quite a few different spots few nights in a row some people told me about a buddy of a buddy some i read about Most i just found..

this my spot crap has to be the biggest pain in the a$$ for new guys on the shore..
last season I remember one night its about 11 -12 i was alone and hitting pretty well from the beach.. some older guy comes up behind me and asked "Hows my spot working out for you." I tried to be nice to the guy but the next thing i know he is wading out into the water in front of me.. and starts fishing in my line of sight.. I dropped my line around him a few times with a I was here first attitude.. but after a little while and some less then nice words I ended up moving down the beach...

We are all out there with the same objective. Very few shore fishers make there living at it. I dont see the point of all this my spot crap

That's brutal dude. What an A-Hole he was!

I can see it from both point of views.. I gear up and get ready to head to a spot and I am a little disappointed when i drive 45 minutes to see someone standing in my foot prints from the night before, but i try not to let it phase me and move down the beach.. None of us own these spots.
If you ole dogs that feel you earned/own a spot. you should be good enough to catch near your favorite spot (share) or move on to another spot if some one beat you to it...

Also who cares if someone burns your spot take it as a compliment you figured it out a long time before the other guy.. You had your time there share or move on.
