I have to say almos all the time I am a lurker. I am usually checking this out at work, while I can look I just can't get involved. So I have to wait until I get home and then I have to come up with the time. So give some of us a break! I try to contribute when I can, although I am not sure I have much to lend. I am still learning a lot!!

Buck :p

I came out of the closet last week Buck. It is not a bad thing at all to lurking occasionaly. Some of the guys on this site really know their stuff. And some are even willing to share some of their secrets. Although I can understand that they may not be to eager to share with someone who is not willing to be an active participant in the site. We all have some knowledge of fishing and all of the variables involved. Go ahead and share an experience. We are all here because we love to fish!

Buck, you are going to get almost ZERO sympathy around here for lurkin'. But I have to give you some credit, at least you'll admit to it. All most of the guys (and gals) ask is that you post something constructive once in a while. Just don't tell us the river is blown when is it in prime condition---just keep your yap shut, unless you want to PO a lot of folks. A lot of the guys & gals will share some techniques; for example, look at RichG's post about his multi-colored killer bugs. (RichG, you're killin' me--I am working all day!!) No specifics on where, just an effective bait. Fair enough?

I would also like to add that not all of the "Drop by Anglers" are unregistered lurkers.

By doing regular pc maintenance you should be removing cookies and thus will have to log in to the site. If you forget to log in, you will show up as a number.
