A Post For Michigan.......
I don't want to sound like I'm being nosy, but there is one facet that you guys might try to get some interest going. I started the LA board a bit less than 3 years ago, and it was a slow time before things got rolling, and guess what made the difference? After looking at some of the other states, especially North and South Carolina, there were lots of photos displaying the member's crappie catches, and like me, others from other state boards were reading them too! OK! I got out the Nikon and took it with me on every trip to see if I got more interest. It's not hard to post pics, and talk about results! Suddenly we started picking up new members and lots of posts coming in....virtually all of our members now can post pics, and I can hardly keep up with all the posts and pics. I used the ol' Nikon untill I realized how expensive it was to have all my photos developed to a CD, so I bought a digital so I could put them directly on my 'puter. I hope you guys don't mind this suggestion from an ol' southern boy...."get you some digital cameras!" They don't have to be a high dollar 10 MP money hole job, I got a 3.1 MP and it's all I need for posting, and it takes great photos!!! Watch for discount sales in the paper and flyers, usually from places like "Circuit City," and you can buy them cheaper. Just a suggestion, guys, but I'd like to see you get kicked off strong, thereby generating more interest and a better board for all of you. BTW, tell all your friends and get them to sign up on the site, it's free and you can get reports in your area, which will help you and your fishing buddys to be where they are biteing at the right time to catch crappie, or whatever you fish for. I wish all of you good luck and good fishing!! :D
I hope the action picks up
You guys are right about the help on the South Carolina Site. I hope that more people in Michigan get involved and start posting. I think that a lot of people don't even know about "CRAPPIE.COM". I only heard about it about a month ago. As more people there find out about it , it is bound to get better. I feel that fishing is for everyone and we should all help each other as much as we can with as much information as we can. Here in South Carolina that seems to be the case. But then again we all know how fisherman lie!!!!(lol).
