The late Tim Coleman started these "grapevine" reports where he would call a list of friends with no fishing related business connections for "general" reports. In our weekly conversations he mentioned more than once that the individual reports he would get were much more accurate than those he would get from his paid advertisers. Tim was a realist and he always knew when someone was spewing misinformation or yanking his chain. He had to walk a fine line with those clients that would pay for advertisements in his magazine. Just the nature of the game he would say. I learned much from Timmy and for that I'm grateful.

Too funny but true.
I once called out Mike frome the Boston Globe and said that your full of $hit on your accuracy b/c I fished the spots in the Habah that he was spewing was completely in accurate.
The funny part was he got pissed that I actually called him and told him that he was wrong he was freaking pissed.
Holy endorsements.
