No I don't agree there, Jeff. There was always some banter here on AF, and it was part of the value of this forum. And that is coming from someone who has had the pleasure of meeting Moonlighter and both of the Unicorns in person. In fact I go on an annual holiday with one of them.
Fact is, I would take any of those fellas' advice on fishing, and Thank them for it. And I met them all thru Ausfish.
I could mention how a bunch of very active contributing members left for another forum some 3 years ago, but that is only part of the story.
Its a pity that the owner of Ausfish now lives overseas, and there have been almost zero M&G's for the last 3 years.
It would help a lot if some of the veteran members were inspired to return and help. And real events were planned instead of just keyboard stuff.
Cheers, Pauly

It was only 4 weeks ago that I attended one Paul....enjoyed it a great deal, I do hope they continue with Phill stepping down as key organiser though.
Last M&G I tried to organise I was the only one who turned up LOL, so not really my forte but happy to help.

Re: Lack of fishing reports
I am happy to keep posting fishing reports. Not every time I go and catch fish as it can get a bit repetitive. There are a couple of spots that I don't post about, not because they are the best, but because the area to fish is very small (e.g. 10 metres)!
My reason for posting is that many anglers believe that it is hard (or impossible) to catch fish off the bank consistently in Moreton Bay, but that is incorrect as my reports, pics and videos show. I know I have positively influenced a few peoples fishing patterns and have contributed in a small way to them catching fish (or gathering bait).
Re: Lack of fishing reports
I've got no problem with some friendly banter between members especially who know each other - heck you should see what goes on over in the PBA members forum!
Good humoured and they know to keep the content and language acceptable without needing to be moderated.
As you say it adds character to the forum.
Mojoes and back in black et al are good examples. I use the term "good" loosely, of course ;)
Btw when we were coming back into the creek at 1770 on Tuesday last week, a glass boat about 19ft long totally ignored the 6knot zone and caught up with us at the yacht anchoring areas. Slowed down behind us ta that point.
The boats name?
"Back in Black" :o
Had pro numbers on the side. Apparently 6 knot zones don't apply to them.
someone doing some moonlighting?

Obviously the good quality bourbon has dulled your senses. That red looks like it would drag ya boat backward. Lucky you were only fishing light.

You need to proof read more. I'm sure you meant to write "Mojoes and Back in Black are loose examples on good terms"
