Crazyhook Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 I P.S. I believe that any report with/without pictures is a "look at me/look what I caught" self gratification. I also believe that the OFC community is based on information exchange and self gratification. Information, entertainment, aquatic voyeurism and ego are the foundation of our participation here. Trout should not be allowed in casinos Perfect why post anything actually... back to just emailing my fishing friends
Joey Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 I have touched up my photos if they are too dark, but I never change the background and never will. If other people want to, I don't really care. Their photos aren't going in my album, mine are. Joey

douG Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 We are all different in many ways. Post whatever you want, however you want to do it. This world and the bigger one outside (the real one) would be a boring tedious place if we were all the same. Everyone have a nice day, now.
ccmtcanada Posted January 22, 2007 Report Posted January 22, 2007 Ok...here's my two cents.... I'm fortunate that all my pics have been taken at night, so there is nothing in the background anyways. However, after a particularly great night...I posted a bunch of pics on here. I had PMs of people telling me to make sure no one could use my pics to see where we were....and to keep out spot a secret. I even had one guy look back to all my previous posts and point out where landmarks were that are recognizable...even though the pic was at night. Shore/trib fisherpeople are at a disadvantage when it comes to fishing spots...especially in urban areas. It's one thing to take a pic out on a lake, but in my opinion, the risk is greater for us that the spot will be found/destroyed. Anyhow, photoshop away...I love seeing the pics of the ppl and fish....and reading the reports. It's what brought me to this board in the first place.
Rich Posted January 23, 2007 Report Posted January 23, 2007 Can someone photoshop me some banana bread? I'm hungry.
kemper Posted January 23, 2007 Report Posted January 23, 2007 Im against photoshop in most cases, (read post in locked thread) but in some cases (I.E snag) it is a very good idea to photoshop the pictures. Something recognisable like the CN tower in the background could definatly add pressure to a spot. Now where I fish, unless you recognise that rock in the river or the pine tree over my shoulder, you would never find the place. And if you did, it would be because YOU HAD ALREADY FISHED THERE. kemper
Steve Posted January 23, 2007 Report Posted January 23, 2007 It all boils down to if someone really wants to know where your fishing, they'll find out. I mean it doesn't even take pictures...just being part of an active board does it. You can be careful as you want, like CCMT, however, all it takes is reading his posts outside of fishing reports....chatting about his daughter with crazyhook, the beans were spilled....intentionally? of course not. as soon as someone makes a post, even without pictures, your opening up a chance of having your fishing spot fished.....
