I have a question. Can I post up any kind of fishing story on here?

[BassyiusMaximus]

The reason why I ask is that I don't want to post anything up that is not generally allowed. I just have some fishing stories that I'd like to share with everyone and want to know if it is ok, despite them not being about striped-bass.

To post or not to post, that is the question.

my vote would be yes, if in doubt, put in the scuppers

as long as it's fairly clean i'm sure the bossman would'nt mind.

I say this with all due respect, yes, but keep the story to fishing. I really don't want to sound like an ass but some of the previous stories have been tooooo long with detail beyond extreme to the point where I felt it detracted from your story. So understand this for what it is - well intended criticism.

Thanks,


John

Thank you gentlemen.

If one were to look at my past posts, I believe that they are all 100% clean and legitimate. After all, I type these stories with my 4 year old Nephew, who is a fish and fishing nut, and my 6 year old Neice in mind, I like to have their Mom read them the stores I post because the stories are real and they know I fish and are lucky/fortunate enough to catch fish so they love them. So with your permission, I will now sit down and bang out this weekends story, complete with pics. Thank you for the ground clearance, I will reward you all shortly.

I like to think that I'm entertaining and maybe giving some tips, tricks and strategies to all on the WWW. Here I am, believing that it is a privilege to be able to post a most harmless fishing story on the web, geez, what has come over me?, however, I guess I am just being respectful. I'll just type the story and shut the f-up now.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that soo many details of the story that do not pertain to the fishing detracts from your fishing story. That's all. (Unless I'm becoming a cantakerous old bastard)

i really enjoy the stories and the pics.

the first time i read one, i did think it was more of a flexing your muscles type of tone but after seeing your posts i understand that you are trying to entertain us.

that being said if you could perhaps down size the images of your posts so i don't have to scroll left to right. I hardly read long posts and that makes it just that much more difficult. Also JR has a point with the utmost respect and constructive criticism that if it is truely a story worth telling, words can sometimes get in the way. So shorter might sometimes be better. the story call many times tell itself if you know what i mean.

keep it up bassy. i always enjoy seeing the catch.
