This a typical day on this site.
I log on daily and i would bet 5 out of the 7 days a week, this is the case.
All the hooks are black indicating no new post.
The hook for the political forum is always red (new posts)

You guys drive the topics ; )

The political forum is (somewhat) fun but sadly reflects our national division. The Sandbar, when we had it was great, but dangerous.

The rest, the regular discussion, is up to you guys.

I am having. Hard time understanding.. many of the people who blame the political section don’t post in it . Most don’t post in the Boat section or the main section.. they may respond, but they do not start threads I can count on 1 hand people who post photos of a catch. Some people have the same suggestion if you want to save it start threads promote conversations , not just the I remember when stuff , post photos fish or no fish it’s just nice to see what others are doing . Enjoy the fall

The problem with that is, without it, politics will spill out over the whole sire, especially the Main Forum. It's inevitable. It's why a separate forum was needed to begin with. Even so, some of it still sneaks out. Sometimes the best thing to do is ignore it, unless it ignites a brawl.

The problem is that when there was meet ups you met others and there was a level of friendship. Now, people don't meet each other and there is no reason to be polite to others.

John is there a way to post a picture from your phone right onto the site? Not download to a computer then to the site. I don’t see a way to do that. Like it’s not an option to post one. 🤷
All is see for phone is quick reply

The solution is to make the political forum password protected.

Fishing report

Great trip to the Block. We have caught everyday. No pictures a we are not killing anything. We've had to move around but if you put you time in, you can find decent fish.
Best fishing on the Block I have seen, in November, in 15 or more years.

Having a blast fishing with DZ and Bob Huddy

No boat, back in the suds.

Great report, Paul! Sounds like a fun trip with a good group of guys!

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I agree about this Thread:
1. I want to see this site survive; therefore, I will try to add some of my fodder. This past month, however, I am doing and catching very little of any note, and therefore, no pictures. But I am still (freezing) out there and trying. And my usual accomplice, Numbskull, is not helping me.

2. The way I have posted pics in the past in both this site and the "other" site-- I have downloaded them from phone to computer first.
However, the "other" site is easier to produce success it seems. This site requires me to "resize" my pics to add as an Attachment which is beyond my 8 decade of life technical abilities. The "other" site never asks me resize my pics.

That's awesome. I'm thinking of how many November trips to Block Island I did and most were a bust. A 15 under the lighthouse when I nearly died in Nebe's friends house and the 70 Oakley dropped in the wash at SW point.

**I'm jealous. I just knew somebody, somewhere, was catching something while I was freezing my A-- off on my turf.
