If $$$$ was the goal things would be quite different. Here you can post links, within reason. If there is spam it gets zapped sooner or later but seems to be mostly ignored(the best solution to a lot of internet BS)
We all have the power to make this site better.
If you want to write an article, go for it, you might be the next Frank
Ok, that was a cheap shot. But it is probably your best opportunity to get to know or be known by a magazine editor. I have seen articles by authors that I know had a ton of editing before they were ready. So don't be afraid. Myself, I would rather read something that is honest and from the authors heart and experience and full of BM lingo or Zenoisms than a polished piece from a professional "author" based on research, a little experience and the need for money.
There are some great "articles" here already some are in the http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripert...splay.php?f=33 and some are in threads somewheres here.
I would like to thank John R very much.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
