and so that is where i stand. I haven't been here as long as the rest of you, but i fell in love with this forum by being able to participate. It also didn't take long for me to subscribe (it's a father's day present...) Taking away the ability to participate, i feel, would be a large mistake. The majority of new users won't understand how awesome this forum is, and will not want to pay to post. Honestly, i thought i would have posted a line, talked to a few guys, and never come back. As I am sure that i've annoyed at least half of the usual suspects at this point, you should all know that isn't true. I'm most likely here to stay This forum has the potential to convert. It does. What that conversion is is up to speculation, whether it is a mag subscription, a new job for a pond management consultant on the site, a "premium" forum subscription, whatever. taking away the ability to participate lowers the site's ability to convert. Honestly, I think that this place is awesome. All of you guys rock, and I couldn't have found a better place to talk ponds & fish. I even use this as my bragging board for fishing now. But I almost didn't find it, which is what i think the real problem is. As another poster pointed out, the only thing that shows up in google is a 1987 dental hygienist award. thanks for all of your time, patience, and all of your rockin' advice, even when green sunfish are involved.

Trying to help with 7.5 Acres in the Chain of Lakes Illinois - - The fish would stay out of trouble if it could just keep its fool mouth shut. Turns out there is a lot I should be learning from the fish.
