    Five stars for this comment. It is the simplest advice and one that 90% of guys cannot follow.

    "No knives to a gun fight." Lots of big blues yesterday. Saw many guys lost fish. 8lb mono isn't gonna cut it with these gators. Gear up accordingly.

    When you see someone catching fish in a blitz, like I was, do not crowd up to them and mug them on each side, and then ask them how they are doing. Not a good way to make friends.

    ^^ yeah, people today want all the glory without doing any of the legwork. How hard is it to find your own fish?

    DONT fillet your fish on your hood!! Unless you're "in the hood" then nobody cares!

    If you are new to the game and see people posting fish on the internet, think before publicly asking them where was it? What beach where you on? Where was this caught? If you can't understand why it's not cool to ask these questions publicly on the internet you deserve not to catch any fish. Jmo

    Well said. Very limited access and some of the rivers that I fish. It's hard to understand why people would want to post pics clearly indicating background. Makes no sense at all.

    Shouldn't some of this be common sense? What happened to fishing that stealth and common sense took a back page to ego and chest pounding?

    Got chased off the water by lightning last night. Don't mess with it when you are carrying a rod in your hands.

    Read this the other day. Just an observation, not about the guys here, but mainly about the internet heros and prostaff braggers:
    "telling people how awesome you are on the internet rarely translates to skill with a fishing rod in your hand...."

    After this noreaster is a good idea to walk your local beach at low tide and make the holes again. They will have changed.

    Sharpen or change out those rusty hooks gents. Saw a fellow fisherman swing and miss 10 times in a row the other night. There were some nice stripers around. Took a look at his hooks, both were rusty. I gave him a new one for the front and he started catching more and missing less.
