What intell should a real "fishing report" include?

[BrokeLoser]

And the "troll" lives on.
So predictable you guys are....someone will always cry troll at the end of a dead end thread for three possible reasons.
1. - An attempt to bring closure
2. - An easy opportunity to increase post count
3. - To revive said thread to keep it alive and well
Not sure what your motive was?

Remember, this started out simple and was made complex and trivial for the sake of argument by the real trolls. I knew full well that some would feel personally attacked...probably because they know they post boot-leg "reports".
The standard for what a real fishing report should include was set long before I started this thread, we have all read them for years. Pretend to act like you don't understand that all you want...that's what makes internet forums so fun and entertaining. Think about it, this would be no fun if you listened to reason? I mean, to me, the obvious reply to my original post should read something like this:
'Yeah, you're probably right. If you're gonna post a fish report in a fishing reports forum it should atleast follow the standard guidelines of what makes a report a report. Otherwise just post your cool guy photo in another forum.'
End of story...case closed....but that's way to boring and we have to make the site sponsors happy....Thanks for playing guys!

For you simpletons. (taken from dictionary.com)
re·port [ri-pawrt, -pohrt] Show IPA
noun
1. - an account or statement describing in detail an event, situation, or the like, usually as the result of observation, inquiry, etc.: a report on the peace conference; a medical report on the patient.

Kinda hard to argue that one huh?

(p.s. - this is quickly turning into the exact kind of drama I tell my teenage daughter to avoid on the internet...kinda ironic..haha)

I thought this was settled along time ago?

Isn't criticizing "fish reports" for lack of information just as bad as critisizing them for too much information?



“We will not tolerate any member(s) trying to be policing the content on BWE when it comes to fishing reports.”

Nuff.

Post what you will.

The internet has been a game changer, and it keeps evolving. Just do some searches form back 10 years ago - the way reports used to be done is not the way it is being done today, but that's OK. There is always good info to pick up, stuff to learn, the most importantly - get inspired!

We will not allow anyone to be defining how it ought to be done.
If you want to define what the "fishing report" ought to look like, start your own forum.

If you're getting bothered by other members once you post a report, report that user to moderators, forward the PM's /emails. We'll promptly address.

This troll is being suspended.

Put the mac on and out instead and get out there.
