Was doing a little surfing by the Outdoor Channel last night, and it was during a show called something like 'Montana Adventure' when I saw an ad from a sponsor called "iFish.com". Took a look this morning and they're a joke! Website is under construction, but it looks like it's going to be all advertising. The least they could have done was get a more original name. :hoboy:

Thats been there from when I first started coming to iFish (net)....so who knows, maybe it was first. But yes, it sucks as a web site.

Not much of a web site. About 10 clicks and I was through.
Looks like it started in 1997.

Yes, I asked in the very beginning if they would be willing to sell the domain. Their response?
"Jennie
We could talk about a partnership and possible arrangement that would work
for both of us. I was thinking of offering to buy iFISH.net from you. As
far as selling iFISH.com outright, We have no intention of letting this one
off the line. If we can partner it could be fun, if not we will be friendly
competitors of yours. We have more that just the URL and have been under
development for about two years. I Hope to here from you, and will always,
wish the best for your business.
Sincerely yours,"
Anyway, did a search and they had a copyright on ifish.com, but it expired...
I get the feeling he is happy with those people who click on ifish.com by accident, while meaning to click on ifish.net.
Oh well!
Best of luck to them! My registered business name is www.ifish.net. (http://www.ifish.net.) I'm happy with what I have! :smile:
