Several of our newest members have mentioned they appreciate coming here, but feel somewhat intimidated by our members who have years of experience.

That's a good point. If you are inexperienced, you can be near an angler who is using the same setup as you, and outfishing you 5 to 1. I decided to set up threads to help our newest members learn "How" and "Why". The "where" will be your responsibility.

If we can teach you how and why, then we have helped people to become better anglers. Anyone is welcome to join in, and give their feedback on what works for them in different conditions.
