I could not agree with you more... I have no issue with any of the outlets for information. What I took exception to was the response to MY AFTER THE FACT POST. All these outlets came into play and it was the main reason I was there at 5:0 pm Friday and why I got in line at 2:00 am. When I left at 7:30, permit in hand, the roads were backed up to Rt 6. My post that afternoon was of no consequence.

To post that the place was a mad house after it happened and everyone and their brother phoned everyone they knew, made NO difference. It was done.

The response my post received and the one that questioned the response was disingenuous and hypocritical.

Flap, I actually enjoy your articles. I understand that it is a means of income to you and that credibility is of the utmost importance. I can also relate to the threat you found on your vehicle last year. I am just surprised your silence now as compared to then. All these innuendos being passed my way. What say you now???

You know, it's not like I am playing "Where's Waldo" in a daily blog starring you know who..... I made a small post about a mess at a National Park. You made references to places about last years fishing considering specific spots. Is one so much worse than the other? Why are we not talking about burning spots and what you wrote about in this same April issue? About last springs fishing. Are people not reading that and planning on visiting those same beaches within the next few weeks? Of course they are!

To have so much trouble regarding a "post event" thread and no word mentioned about burning spots in OTW shows a great disparity. We are in the "age of information" and we all better get over it...

I am not one to be intimidated. Not one to hide and cower either. I stand up for what I believe in and will not back down to a threat. I'll be on Race point beach all summer if all goes as planned. Stop in for a coffee or ANYTHING else any of you have in mind. I welcome the visits.

And in closing, a word of thanks is in order as well. That article in the April issue influenced my departure time considerably. Thanks! I would have only headed up there on Saturday morning myself if not for your reminder.

BTW... they sold out in 16 days last year, not 6.

Take some air out of those tires.
