Parksville lake of course
Lately I've been posting my Parksville fishing reports in the contributor forum section so all the lurkers on here wouldn't get a steal on my tips when they don't contribute at all nor appreciate what you provide for them.</p>

</p>

But it seems that there are still plenty of folks on here that still do that... I've noticed several people at Parksvilleusing my "secret" technique the lastcouple of tripsand that is just too much! I don't want tohave another bunch of people knowing about it either. (Becausethere would be no fish left for me! Not selfish because I self taught myself about it, why should Ihave to have the whole worldknow?)So I'm just being careful and keepingall of my techniques for Parksville asecret from here on out. I may post a report coming from Chickamauga or some other lake every now and then. </p>

</p>
 
whats the point of sharing a technique if no one picks up on it and improves their fishing because of it?
 
Dude, I was sharing the technique. Turns out plenty of people were picking up on my tips... To many people. So I decided to post in Contributor with my latest technique, but have seen atleast 4 guys doing the same thing. Also in some of my favorite spots. SO it turns out that people are picking up on it, perhaps to many people. THis is why I''m done with Parksville reports!
 
Crazy I don't know why you think folks could not see it in the contributors forum. If you look at the member list there is everyone on here that has made at least a couple of reports that can see that forum as well. The idea with sharing is to help others out. Thats what it all started out as anyway. Now you know why some of the older member s have quit posting their discreet info.
 
Maybe I missed something years ago when I signed up for CFF. Maybe I missed something when i took the Admin role...</p>

Are we not here to "help" others ENJOY fishing? Are reports not for sharing some type of info to pass along? Why all the sudden are we trying to keep people from enjoying a great pass time and getting all upset about it. Thats not the CFF I know! </p>

I thought about pulling this post too but its already out there. Do what you must Kevin. Think what you will.....at the end of my day, I'm happy to help another! ;) </p>
 
i love sharing all of my info to help other people out the way i see it they cant catch all of the fish in the lake there is just too many and they cant fish all of the good spots all the time not only that patterns change all the time day to day hour to hour and you had the ability to figure out these patterns just figure out some more and if nothing else just share a few and keep a few to your self no one said you had to tell all of them im sure no one else does!
 
Oh Kevin.... that's such a delimma, but listen to what you are saying??!?!?!?! Tell me something, have you ever read this forum and learned something? I bet you have! And that being said, look at what you have given back to others. Those guys who show up in your spots, yes, are there because you inspired them. And probably taught them something. That's a HUGE accomplishment!!!! And how old are you? It just shows your wisdom beyond your years. You are a great asset to this site and I personally am glad you are here. You show us what fishing is all about and why we all got so involved with it. Your unbridled energy and zest for life is inspiring in of itself. But you just cannot be pissed because someone else learned what you shared and are putting it to good use. And I'll tell you something.... they make those frogs by the millions and have for years. You didn't invent that technique... you may have been one of the first on here to utilize it as you do, but people have been doing one version of that or another all over the country. You'll find another technique you like and will have to eventually when the fish get wise or need something to look at.
Now for reality.... there are around 3000 people on here. You cannot post something if you want it private. This is a public forum. We've all felt the sting of what you are saying one time or another. So, adjust your posts to reflect that knowledge and by all means, enjoy yourself. Whatever you do, don't pick up your ball and go home. We'd all lose if you did that.
 
I post spots on here and exact techniques and lures .. I have never seen any one in my spots .. or doing what I do .. but no matter how much you post .. there are plenty of people that just dont have the gift, touch, skills etc whatever it is to allow some to catch good numbers and quality fish and others nada or dinks. I rarely fish the same place twice in a week .. so at least on chick .. one day fish are there the next gone .. so I dont worry about it much .. and I love to help a fellow fisher person out .. Ive gotten info many times on here on places to try depths etc .. would hate if all quite posting the details cause of people gettin your fishies or mine.
 
I really dont worry about there are thousand of fisherman in our area. And you know what he may not have seen your report but figured them out. There for he did not see your post just knew what to do.
 
Just quit posting reports. If you are dumb enough to post locations and techniques you better be prepared to see someone else doing the same thing in the same place the next time you go out. To be honest, I like the challenge of finding fish and figuring out how to catch them. I don't think I have ever read a report on here to get help? The people I want to learn from are smart enough not to give away their secrets.
 
Hey Kevin, one of the guys in this very thread TOLD me about a technique and then I saw it live with one of his buddies a few months later. I caught a 9+lb bass with it!!!!! Now I rarely use it. They bite many, many things my man.... one of the things you may not have thought of, is that NO matter what time you hit those spots, you may have been the 3rd or 10th person to hit it that day. Just feel more rewarded when you go back in there behind them and haul 'em out.
 
Dont post location in your pics or reports, that would solve your problems. You can copy ANYBODYS technique, but if your not in the right location, it dont matter what technique you use, you wont catch fish. I dont mind sharing info at all, but i dont publicly give away exactly where im at when i fish. Or at least i try not to.
 
Kevin hopefully you will reconsider, I enjoyed reading your posts as others did as well. I adopted the theory a long time ago if somebody can go out and catch fish were I am with the exact same set up, let em do it, if thats what they need to do. I understand Parksville is a small lake and a few boats seems like alot but you fish that lake more than most and you dont seem to have any trouble getting a limit of SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATs. Just dont be as specific, also Im sure you helped alot of people have a good day with your informative reports, everyone knows that. I have always been honest with what I am fishing with you know from fishing with me that Im throwing that same finesse worm, and a ten inch worm. I have been for weeks and will all summer. Thats what I do. Im sure before the summer is out you will be throwing somthing different and killin em anyways. Just keep it quiet. If you caught a ton of fish every time out, it wouldnt be fishin, it would be shopping.
