Why not move every detailed report to the Moderated board?

Because if the user chooses to post in the open forum that is their choice, not a moderator's choice. If they want to tell everybody to go to Lick creek because the crappie are on the bed and tell where exactly they caught them, again that is their choice to be open about their fishing. So it is not a moderator's choice, it is the poster's choice.

I won't post specific locations ON a lake where I caught fish, but I don't mind sharing water conditions, jig colors, etc. to help folks out. Its up to them to do a little leg work and find the fish.

We can disagree on the moderator's job, but I just don't understand why the Georgia guys voted for a "member's only detailed report board", and nobody uses it.

For the record, nobody has posted a fishing report in that forum in two years.

I know what you mean Dutch. The information you give is very useful and gives a leg up. Having the color and the water conditions is a great start to use in the area that the reader fishes. Catching crappie is just reading the weather and the water and you start where the weather and water temp tell you. Then find what color is best for that day and sometimes the type of jig matters big time. Sometimes things are weird and you have to go with your gut. Of course this is just from my experience and isn't worth much. Good luck fishing everybody.

Mostly why nobody has posted in there FOR LESS THAN A YEAR for the record Judge Dredd, is because a lot of the best fisherman are communicating information a different way. Dutch, Hotwater, Danbo ChuckyBoy, and the other experienced fisherman (please forgive me I can't remember all the good fisherman on here right now, LOL) that post here are still nice enough to post great reports and give information. When the Moderated Forum was voted on it was voted in by a large margin. A lot of those guys that voted are gone now.

Agreed, but that's not what I said:

Obviously.
