Rob, let's take a look at this:

"I'd like you to apologize for posting as Curious and Curious 2..."

I simply replied, and was only asked for my name. Any other board I've posted on defaults to a prompt to logon if you are not. Not my fault your software did not do that at the time, although I see you've attended to that.

...and I'd like you to knock of the smart remarks like "Any notable catches made on them yet?"

That's not a smart remark. It's simply an inquiry as to the relative success of the bait. What in your estimation makes a bait a good bait? Is it "sick" or does it look cool? If it does not produce fish, what good is any bait then except to maybe hang on the wall as a decoration or frustrate the angler who's throwing it?

"Better fix that Rob so you can be in control."

For that remark, I apologize. I'm not exactly sure why emails are required for this kind of stuff any way, except to make them public so I can get more unsolicited advertisemenst with bad spelling for Vigra, Cialis, etc.



"I don't see you walking the line like this over on the Allcoast Tuna Board where you usually hang out"

That's a different world. For me, that's recreation. I usually fish one or two long range trips each year. I've got lots of cyber fishin' buddies on Allcoast. There are a few knuckleheads on those forums, too. Most notably on the Tackle Board, and I've taken exception with a few of them.


"...and if you don't knock it off, I am just going to ban you"

Rob, if this is such a protected precious little world you have going over here, I'm sure you'll do what ever you have to do. It's not Disneyland, it's reality. People have a right to voice their opinions and ask questions. Again, "Any notable catches made on them yet?" is a legitimate question. Where's the negativity or trash talking in that?

"...which would be unfortunate because since I don't talk to Jerry any more, and he doesn't post any more, you're one of the few sources to find out info about his new baits. I'd think it would be in your and Jerry's best interest to just be cool, share some bait."

Always happy to share info. If you like the Live Trout Swimbait, you're gonna absolutely flip out when you see the one Jerry's working on right now.;)
