This is a good thread, I think I'll play ~

My thoughts, since YOU asked

I thinks some people like to remind other people that there are fish out THERE, NOT ON HERE....that are still waiting to be caught. You know there's always people who think big fish can't be caught from a rock or that the season is over when October rolls around. A nice picture of a fish will get them to un-retire that surf-rod one more time or keep those boat guys at bay.

I think there are some people who like to float their own boat by showing off pictures, they like to remind people that they catch fish regularly, AND like to show them off,, time and time again, just in case you missed their last showcase.

Then there are people who just generally like to share experiences or a good story, and of course pictures always help a good story.

Then there are people who don't really CATCH much fish but they post like hell, as if they do.....so they think a picture now and then justifys all their storys,,, you know the guys who post pictures of "30#" fish.....which in reality are just barely over 30"....I always love the guys with scales in their head, not in their hand,,,

Then there's people like me, who don't catch fish.......so there aren't any pictures to show at all

I agree with you Goose, unless it was an incredible battle or a fish out of the norm, or like Jim said, if there was something about the night the fish was caught, a picture definately helps you remember details you may not have written down.

I personally don't mind looking at fish pictures, for whatever reason they were posted. It's nice when the same person puts them in the same thread though, kinda gets old when the same dude has 1/2 dozen threads with just pics. If each thread had a different meaning/story...I wouldn't mind as much, but who da fudge am I anyway???....

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, ...there's also people out there who take pictures so they can edit them for the internet in hope of becoming "Net-Famous" ....
