I meant no harm in the post I know if someone asked where this spot was and got a reply (even in a PM) folks would have been pi$$ed which is the reason why I did not ask putting you in a position to get yelled at by the folks of this forum. Now I do not know the area but it just seems that if someone even named the town it seems to me that folks here would get pi$$ed.

I just felt that IMO the post should have said somthing like "EBEN, check your PMs, there is good info for you" because they way it read to me was that this spot is secret and only the folks who know you would only benefit. IMO this post had no benefit to all the users of this forum so it should have been in a PM. If you said in your post that "The pattern I have been seeing down in SoCo is that the big stripers are down so let the jigs fall as they are chasing macks and if you left it on top you would lose jigs as the blues were going crazy" that would be ok with me.

BTW, I do put plenty of time in and I spent over $300 on gas investigating spots on the canal and outer beaches on a week in October...have you ever seen me ask for specific spots...no because I know where to fish for stripers and blue fish and most likley know where they would be based upon structure, although I do ask for help in certain situations though....I find the structure by using topo maps and charts combining that info with a street map to find places to park. I feel that if I asked for a specific spot I would get the "put your time in" reply. However I have recieved PMs with replys helping me and I thank everyone for the info they give me.

The thing I like about the many sites that I am on is that everyone shares information and I have learned SO much in the short time I have been on this site and I have been fishing for many years.

So Maybe you now know why I posted the first message.

Thanks
