I know people post on here and occasionally don't get replies. What post has had the most views without ever getting a reply?


In Dog Beers, I've had one.

heybud, I have no idea. I normally navigate the forum using the "Active Topics" list (to try and catch unanswered posts to at least give them a bump), which does not display the number of times viewed.

I may look into this, but it has a lower priority than getting my conference photos posted.

Theo, something else for you to do when you go back to work - who is second in thread kills (I'm clearly first). \:D

For curiosity, I would like to see the topic titles that have never received even one reply. I would guess that legitemate pond questions with no answer or reply are very few. Usually someone here has some sort of opinion.

Here is one for you.
http://www.pondboss.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=3615&Number=36229#Post36229

My one and only serious post question related to pond management the back bone of pond boss and this forum and I got zealach, nada, zero, none, no replys. So I gave up and went back to posting non-pond related stuff which I normally have done. Blaim it on yourselfs, not me. I tried to do the right thing and look what happened.

Rocky please consider this an apology from the entire Forum. I have never offered that to anyone before. Sometimes we do miss things. I have also had a post or 2 with no reply. I am sure you have seen the info below from Aquaplant. Check your orig thread.

Ewest no need to apologize I'm just kidding as usual although I was surprised that it never got a reply. I tried the die method, but was a waist of money sense my pond has such a large water shed. It just flushed down stream first real rain. This year the problem has been minimal with still enough room to fish and swim. As said before my ponds have a tremendous BG population probably because of it and the Bass being caught are very healthy. I'm thinking of stocking tilapia next year to control it. The heat and dry weather are now taking a toll and my ponds are dropping like a rock. Weeds are the least of my worries at the moment.

Tom, I'd say that is about what we are seeing. If you remember when you came fishing just less than 8 weeks ago they were still running water and over full. There all down about 24 inches already and dropping fast. Did you get any rain Sunday? Looked like a big storm down your way? We got 1/2 an inch yesterday.

The Devil made us do it.

I'm in a union and therefore I'm not allowed to answer that particular question.

My underwear was creeping up on me that day so it was hard to concentrate.

That's all the excuses I can think of for now.

As far as the meat goes, hands down yes. Perfect ribs and the best darn brisket I've ever had, plus many other good choices.

As far as rubs, yes.

Sauce-wise, I still miss Todd's Rip Roarin' Ribs in Topanga, CA. Their sauce was was A+++ in my book. TX sauce has only rated A++ for me so far, but then I haven't tried all the sauce in Texas yet - I'lll have to keep coming back and eating TX Q until I have.

Sauce? That's used to cover up the taste of lousy Q.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I got my very first taste of Texas BBQ on this trip. All other BBQ pales in comparison (IMHO). In addition to great people, and beautiful property, Texas also has world class BBQ. If I didn't live in California I'd have to really consider living in Texas (assuming of course that Texas would have me, which is a huge assumption on my part).

JHAP, We will take you in Texas any time. We have a few others we may ship out to make room for you. (That is not a slam on your size or anything like that)

No,its not a slam on your size,what he meant was that they would have to ship out a few nut cases before you could move here.Will your property be resonable?If you move here I might be forced into the market
