Roy: Thank you for taking the time to post this courteous response to some of the questions and concerns brought up on this thread.
As you are aware, there has been tension building between some of the mods and some of the posters here for a few months now.
As a regular poster here since 2008, I have seen and experienced this first hand recently and felt that there was no recourse to be had when ambiguos decisions are being made by some of the mods based on the wind of any particular day at times.
As a community, there will always be disagreements of points of views and mis interpretations of intent via print communications.
I am sure that the fishing season itself will clear up much of this in the not to distant future.
Tight lines.
Ron
