Hey - some of ya'll are famous now - sftcatfish, Rick, jigglestick & surfacetension made it into this article -
http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/sports/outdoors/5235975.htm

Something got me to thinking -

{For all their popularity, few fishing Web sites are economically viable. They don't sell enough advertising. "This is the only thing I do," said Paquin, of fishingminnesota.com. "Am I making money at it? No. But this is my baby. This is going through if I have to starve."}

I, for one, really appreciate having these forums as a resource. My wife's friends call it my 'fishingporn' (joke). When my friends ask me a question I sometimes reply "I don't know, let me consult The Forum" I'm gonna pony up and spend some money with a sponsor. My son is gonna get good use out of the ice-rod I bought from the booth at the Expo, and I think I'll get that Scenic Tackle jig kit, and maybe a rod-holder or two.

Thanks for the site, Rick. Thanks also to all the moderators, Field Staff, Pro Staff, etc.
