Forget the internet. What about the guys on the rivers that make more calls and receive more calls than an internet trouble shooting line. Have seen quiet rivers on weekend mornings full of fish turn into the Ganny on opener with just a few phone calls, no internet needed. Very common amongst the fashion show steelheaders...just as dangerous. Bigger problem is that these guys can catch fish.
The way I see it, more guys on the river forces me to up my game to stay on fish.
I'm actually surprised how quiet some stretches are even on weekends, considering these spots are accessible to the entire GTA.
We should try to promote our sport, not turn people against it. Unless its on private property, no one has more rights to a public spot than others. Even if you've been fishing it for years. Your spot is full, get up earlier. Weekends too busy, fish weekdays. Lots of garbage, get a garbage bags and pick up after the slobs.
