Another Idea, what do you think?

Postby flybob » November 6th, 2008, 12:36 pm

Here is what I am thinking,
Ray started a fantastic topic on where we all came from, regarding fishing of course, this thread has been one of my favorites to keep going back to.
It would be sad to see it one day relegated into the archives, or the really way-back pages!

What say we ask Craig to anchor it at the top and add "Members Bio's" to the "Where did you come from" in the title.
We then encourage all our members and all new members to submit a little bio of their voyage into the sport. Maybe even a photo of themself fishing whenever they caught the bug! I love Anacrime's shot of him and his hair!

I really think this would create a little tighter bond between the Addicts, weather we ever get to fish together or not, we can still be friends through the wonderful world of CyberSpace.

Whatcha all think?

Sweet Bob, great idea.
Fishing is the most wonderful thing I do in my life, barring some equally delightful unmentionables.

So, sort of a cyberfishdating service? :oops: :lol:
How do you tie the fly to your hooks without killing them with the thread? I keep cutting them in half.

Good point Shane, it could get kind of creepy!

Good! Kind of a "I'll show you mine, if you......" :o I played that in Junior High and it worked well there. :lol: :lol:

Seriously, nice idea Bob.
