You are very welcome, Rich. Just trying to help some of the younger folks out. I agree the participation and enthusiasm has changed. The goal has become to post the biggest fish as it relates to one's manhood. How silly.
When did it become polite to put someone down because they caught a small striper, or are happy to catch bluefish and want to share? The mugging has gotten almost intolerable. The area I fish hasn't been that bad because we are getting mostly small bass. Island Beach and Sandy hook get much more pressure and fall into the mob mentality. You can have it and the ego chest thumping. At my age I'm content to walk the beach in peace, make a few casts, and perhaps catch a few fish.
