BucktownAngler Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) Any of you guys on Twitter?? Post up your name and ill follow. I was never into it before, but i friend convinced me to sign up, and i was surprised as to how many fellow anglers was on there, and how much useful posts they put up. Loving it. @jeffdabossplaya Edited February 2, 2012 by Boss
Skipper D Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Its better here i believe , no twitter or face book for me , perhapes other may .
grt1 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 i signed on twitter to see what it was like and to keep an eye on dave mercers tweets, but i got a number of people who want to follow me, some women, some men, and they all wanted to do sexual things with me. I guess they were trolling LOL I only go on it once in a while now, I find it kinda hard to say anything in 140 characters. @elhreporter
206 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 some women, some men, and they all wanted to do sexual things with me. @elhreporter Danm...I musta signed up for the wrong twitter? Or i'm just not as good looking as you grt
Toccobender Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 I just started the twitter thing and don't really get it at all lol. @toccobender
Mike Pike Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Never thought about Twitter as an angling tool Boss. Might be a reason for me to sign up. I've just always seen it as a marketing / selling tool. Everyone who tweets typically has an agenda of somekind, whether it's to promote themselves or their products or companies. I'm not a huge fan right now.

Your right, there is alot of businesses and promotion on Twitter but once you do create an account, you can choose who you follow therefore controling what content you view. It is actually a great tool for anglers. @eTackle_ca
Roy Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 I've never liked (no pun intended) any of the so called social networks. But I guess when your goal is to get as many followers as you can, it has some marketing worth. I keep getting a mental image of sitting in a boat with fishing Bud saying "Hey I got 23 likes today, how many did you get?" Kinda makes me puke just a little.

I'm not a huge fan right now. either did i, but once i realized this ive been addicted. A lot of the pros are on there, and post news, tips, and articles. As well as businesses, who show new products and sales, etc. And of course fellow anglers, who share fishing catches, tips, stories, etc.

myot Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 activly post fishing reports @myotfishing
GBW Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 i'm on it but not much, cause I forgot my password... HAHAHA @GeoffW13

Handlebarz Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 Oh sure I go there and it looks like OFC has blown up Twitter the site has Twitter is over capacity.
Billy Bob Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 "Tweet me" just sounds wrong to another "fellow" angler.....
Handlebarz Posted December 31, 2011 Report Posted December 31, 2011 There we go @handlebarzlures I have not done a lot with it but plan to change that in 2012. One thing I would like to do is post reports as the fishing day goes on but I don't have the smarts or smart phone for it I tried to find everyone but there was a couple that I could not find if I had not added you please check for me.
Bear Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 @MHBEAR, not there much ....... have a tough time with tweet and retweet Want some good tips and to follow Pro's and Am's alike try http://nationalprostaff.com/ I'm just a follower there .......
206 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Posted January 1, 2012 Not to steal a thread but this is also a useful tool for sports fans...I follow my Oilers get updates from morning skate line combo's to injury also almost up to the minute scores. TSN tweets all kinds of sport headlines,great when i'm out or at work Anyway don't fear it try it so much useful info aside from the regular star gossip @mflintoff

LOL! Mike, if you update your stock and fishing reports you WILL get followers! Just make sure you get a smartphone so you can add pic's while out on the water. just look at Dave (FOF) and Pete (TNB) as an example.
