I guess we disagree about OGF . I find that site is much more friendly to the new members. Lots of help there without having to be approved by other members on there .

Being here for years compared to be new means nothing as lots of guys BS being either an old member or new . I for one have no problems letting other fishermen know about other sites that can help them catch more fish . This is a report board and almost half of the post are looking for walk on customers for charters. In my opinion a Report page is just that , for reports ... Anytime anyone asks about fishing in their own boat a charter or two jump in with their post come with us we will show you weather they asked for a charter or not . Look at the post about night fishing , None of the charters here seem to do them but one guy jumps in with their add, fish with us in the evening .. Evening is not night time fishing at all ..

Like I said in a post before , I advertised here for 7 years and was a member for longer then that under a different name .Just because I am here under a new name does not make me more or less creditable then anyone else on here ..

Seems to me some guys think this is their site and it makes me laugh .There are many many guys here that are on OGF as well . Heck one charter captain from here even goes on there and post with his business name on there trying to get customers . Even though there are paying charter companies advertising there . Is that right ??? I read lots of post that has links to other pages on here yet thats not a problem until I post a link to help someone out .

Most Charter guys are very ethical and their business is respected for that . Reputable charters dont have to beg for business as there name speaks for it all so they get booked ahead of time . I laugh everytime I see "had a last minute cancellation " Chartering in my 7 years I had two cancellations to a death in the family of my clients. Amazing how some have a cancellation almost every week .

as far I a 17.5 foot boat , seems like most of you agree with me on the safety issue yet are mad at me for speaking out . I have the right to voice my opinion as well as anyone . Hopefully my advice will save a life and not put peoples lives in jepordy because someone here tells them its not a problem at all ..

Good fishing

Non Pack Hunter !!!

PS Will see many of you over on OGF !!!
