The Weirs

[blackmamba]

Ok W, I'll give you a couple of those, that would piss me off to but sometimes guys on here act like if you are new to fishing you have no business even giving it a try. I didn't grow up with the luxury of fishing all the time as my father was into golf and baseball and other sports like that, not really an outdoorsman. But a few years ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine and got hooked (BIG TIME). A week later I owned my own boat and have been fishing at least once a week since. Thanks to this site and common sence I don't do those things you are talking about and for the record have never fished the weirs but just bc you can't put me on a new lake and expect me to find a decent box of fish doesn't make me an idiot or yoyo.

There are 20 guys on here who I have sent info to about the lake.....Its not about spots or a new guy...but hemmed up at the weirs will not teach you anything.....You have to get out off the easy holes and learn....Like I did...Some spots I found on my own...some spots guys showed me......Some spots I seen boats fishing it before so checked it out later.....
Its the ones who think you can toss a line in the water anywhere and catch a fish

I always thought fishing was for fun. If someone wants to throw a line out anywhere then so be it...that's their idea of fun...it's fishing whether you catch or not. W, in every post I've read you seem to be p*ssed that not everyone is as talented as you when it comes to fishing. Most people would be proud of that, not mad. Take a chill pill and let the "yo-yo's" have their fun fishing for nothing while you tear 'em up. Last time I checked, other than tournaments, fishing is a relaxing, leisure sport. So, chill out and let it be that.

When the "yo-yo's" start ruining my "fun" its not "fun" for me. So how about everybody learn respect on the water and then everybody can be happily ever after.

I agree with you on that. But W wants people to go out and learn to fish...like he did. Some people don't take it as seriously as others. To each his own, but I definitely agree on fishing etiquette and manners. I'm with y'all on that.

Well have fun not catching fish!
There is no handouts go put in your time, get familiar with the lake we all had to do it

I learn something new about big lake every time I go out. Like shaw said. You gotta go put your time in. Thats great advice for anything you do. I don't play golf. So even if tiger woods took my hand and coached me with all his knowledge I still could not play golf to save my life. Go put your time in.
