Do you share your knowledge?

[TexasBob]

I come here for most advice, and get good answers in most cases. I read 2cool for fishing and boating info. I am just amazed how people dont want to share fishing knowledge. I'm not talking about a particular spot, which I don't agree with, but do understand somewhat. Someone inexperienced will ask where to find trout. Fine, they need to know how not where, but maybe they didn't know how to ask. They get riduculed, called names, and told to be trout support dvd's. Just seems rediculous to me. I will share any knowledge I have of any subject with someone willing to listen. Are most internet forums that stuffy? I found TBH first and assume this place is the norm.

I can try to share about what to look for in deer hunting.
Since I'm 65 now, no one cares.

Fishing has been that way long before internet forums... but nowadays anyone with a bayboat and a website is a fishing guide..

All the spots i fish or fished were either shown to me or told to me by older fisherman. (Got a couple that im pretty sure i found on my own..but not so naive to think someone else doesnt know about them..)
Guiding hunters on the ranch gave me a perspective i didnt think i had...in that i get just as excited if not more so for someone else putting one down than i do shooting one myself ..(at times

Man,I do…Anybody that wants to know about particular spots,colors,landmarks…I've always been very helpful to folks that didn't know a lake.Because some guys did the same for me,when I was a kid…I'm a member of 2cool,and I love to visit,but man that crowd is stuckup! I never post on any of the threads,I just like to cruise em..For old times sake I guess..You ever need any info,or a place to get started on a bass lake in Tx,gimme a shout…I've got a good friend that fishes in San Antonio bay a lot,and he's a lot like me when it comes to swapping info.I guarantee you he'll tell me where,and what on..Even when I tell him I'm gonna tell you…One o those guys that knows he's still gonna kick your butt!

I will share any knowledge I have on about any subject. Granted I may not tell you were to hunt or fish but I will tell you what you need to look for. Im not trying to be an ahole by doing this but I think people that want to learn to hunt and fish need to know the entire process for getting their game or fish so maybe one day they can stumble upon a spot or two that is real honeyhole.

What I have found is if you tell 10 anglers where you caught fish, what you caught them on only one or two will actually give it a try and if they don't catch something on the first cast they be gone. So in summary, spill the beans cause they ain't going to do what you said.

When it comes to fishing,
Be as vague as possible and lie when you can.

i would like to find out from the public land hunters here compared to lease hunters on how they share the knowledge. I don't want to reinvent the wheel when someone can at least pass on the tools on how to do something instead of where to do it.

^^^^^Fact^^^^^^^

[GarGuy]

Some folks have quit sharing much actual info because of the ridicule from other "Experts" on the forums.

Yessir..

I know duck hunters are a lot worse then fisherman

I've heard that too…Of the fishermen,I think the Crappie guys are the worst! Snobby old farts…We killed em one year on Ray Hubbard.Had 2 Crappie that were 18" long,and the rest of 2 limits over 14" biggest Crappie I've ever seen,or heard about…Met 4 old fellas on the ramp,asked em how they did,and I got the cold shoulder from all of em..One kinda smirked as he walked off,and said "well, we did limit out"…Kept walking..I hollered at my friend holding the boat on the dock,and asked him if he could pull out those 2 over 18",and he said he'd have to dig em out…That got their attention..You'd have thought they was all related to us after that!

[Hart8]

Never thought about it like that.

Hmm…Good point..I know I've layer off when I had a bit of info to share.

I could imagine this being a problem as well. Someone simply asks for advice or a little bit of knowledge on a subject, and get nothing but smart a** answers from people who think they know everything.
