No need to reply to a report just hit the like icon that's what it's there for ...... simples

Bad season for me - between the weather being all over the place and this rain that is keeping the Yarra flow high.
I have been out fewer times this year than the last few year.
Itching to get back on the river, consistently asap.

I've been having an amazing season in the freshwater at Werribee, I don't care who reads my posts or who doesn't. I am not worried about people fishing down there, the more the merrier, it's a target one million effort by fisheries so whats the point of keeping it a secret, it's one thing that strangers read your reports and go fishing at your spots but they also have to be able to catch a fish there, I see many people fish the Werribee river but they don't get any fish, I have put years into cracking the code, so it's not always a case of ****, I'll go down there and bag out.

Back 5 years ago this was pretty much the only active place to discuss Victorian fishing. Now days you have 25 FB pages dedicated to Vic fishing not to mention another 25 on Instagram.

I follow a bunch of people on Insta who fish and post regularly, the amount of content they put online I don't even need to read reports here to know what happening and where.

Social media platforms are the new forums of discussion so don't be surprised that this place is demising day by day.

I've seen guys write very good reports on here with maybe 1 response or even none, mind you the thread has been viewed 200 times. Why would that person been keen on writing another report then? Some people find it hard to acknowledge someones report with a comment let alone write one themselves.

All I hear is sooking here. This person 'posts too much' that 'person doesn't posts anymore'. Make up your minds people.
The difference between here and insta is here there is actual discussion. "likes" and "well done buddy" is all you'll get from insta.

I post a report here and there and don't mind not getting replies.. I post up reports because i want to, not for validation or likes.

If guys are posting to get likes and get upset because they didn't get replies .. I'm sorry, but those guys are fairies.

Cheers, Anth

So much to learn from this forum.
If everyone contributed something whenever they learnt something new, we’d all be richer.
There is always more to learn , fish to catch , places to see and friends to make.
