Thanks Monk,
There is absolutely nothing wrong with FM mate and has i stated earlier it's the first site i log onto, Yes i agree there is too many angling sites on the net, I only go on FM and one other single species site that has any interest for me on a regular basis, the other sites are too much the "same" theme but without the quality of FM.
The site we've tried to get going has too be honest took us by surprise in positive responses, None of us who started it up are top anglers and im absolutely certain no-one would of heard of us before so we're definately not trying too impress anyone with our fishing skills, One thing we have in common though we are very serious about our fishing, we do no harm too the fish we catch or annoy other anglers, we leave no rubbish behind us, help others if indeed we can and all agree the need for an open East Midlands specialist forum for local anglers too have a chat.
Hopefully no harm in that Monk?
