Believe it or not when John R started this site in 2000 it was ALL FISHING, didn’t even have a political page.
Now it’s a 99.9% political forum, a weekly Weekend Plans and an occasional fishing post site.
I wish John would just take the political page down & im sure I’m not alone.

This has more to do with social media in general. People connecting about fishing in other ways. The political forum is not the death of sb.com....

I would not be opposed if he choose to close it ... fishing is seasonal politics is year round...

I would still fish with anyone here no matter how different we may see the world

It is what it is. Social Media killed most fishing sites. The ones that survived generally have full time people editing and providing content - and FISHING REPORTS / SPOTs.

I can work on this full time or pay my mortgage - that was my choice. As for the Poli forum, it is a pub that allows opinionated people like you to stay good (or dumb) things with little repercussion. Not as fun as fishing but just as important.
