Ifish is great but what are some other boards?

fishbane · 02-12-2002, 12:09 PM

Can anyone post some url's for other fishing boards for the sake of a fairly new guy.

Thanks

Hoosier Daddy · 02-12-2002, 01:02 PM

THERE ARE NO OTHER BOARDS, THERE ARE NO OTHER BOARDS, THERE ARE NO OTHER BOARDS!!!!!!!

Seriously, Piscatorial Pursuits is probably the most popular "other" *cough*cough* board around here. The Guides Forecast is OK, but doesn't get as much action. Oregon Live has one that is good for a laugh or two, but not real useful. I'm sure there are others, but THEY ALL SUCK!!! :grin:

(where's my 5$ Jennie?) :grin:

fishbane · 02-12-2002, 01:06 PM

ouch,Ok i get it. I just thought i'd check some other boards to see how much better Jennies is :grin:

Beek · 02-12-2002, 01:13 PM

A good board for B.C. info is fishbc.com

Similar to this board, good mods and an intelligent group of posters.

STGRule · 02-12-2002, 01:42 PM

Hey Beek: Did you get the stuff I sent you?

Jennie@ifish · 02-12-2002, 02:40 PM

Piscatorial Pursuits
The Oregonian, Oregon Live (kinda lame)

THE REEL HEY_YALL · 02-12-2002, 02:42 PM

www.ifish.net

www.piscatorialpursuits.com and www.steelheader.net

They are the "axis of evil".

That's why I frequent them.

Jennie@ifish · 02-12-2002, 02:43 PM

Piscatorial Pursuits Great board.
The Oregonian, Oregon Live (kinda lame sometimes...)

The Guides Forecast Great info! Subscribe for the best in new news!

Hot Tamalle (just starting)

Steelheader.net Good Board, great other info through out the site.

I don't know if I forgot anything...

And Chnookie, the check is in the mail!

Bruce · 02-12-2002, 03:03 PM

Of course www.gamefishin.com does not compare to these fine boards :grin: , but you might check it out anyway...

brshooter · 02-12-2002, 04:23 PM

Don't forget Don Larson's site. Primarily sturgeon fishing and has a message board.

http://www.worldstar.com/~dlarson/

Jennie@ifish · 02-12-2002, 04:51 PM

Yes! Don's site is excellent!
Especially if you want fishing stuff. (Hey! What a concept!)
:smile:

Links to most of the sites mentioned in this thread, and some others, too, are on the front page of Ifish! Imagine that! :grin:

FEAR NO FISH! · 02-12-2002, 06:41 PM

www.walleyecentral.com is a good one for a lot of fishing topics. Really a huge board.
IFISH IS STILL NUMERO UNO!
www.steelheader.net is also great.

hoochie · 02-12-2002, 07:27 PM

NOTHING compares to IFISH
Friendly, Honest, fun-loving, expert advice.
One big, happy family.

You won't get that on ANY other NW fishing B.B.

BuKuBass · 02-12-2002, 08:19 PM

For those of us who enjoy "the fightingest fish that swims": web page and web page . Just had to see for yourself, didn't you?

Ryan Pultz · 02-13-2002, 03:43 AM

Viva LA Ifish!

Thumper · 02-13-2002, 05:31 AM

Don't any of you people work??? I am on Ifish and PP so much that if I add another board I won't have time to work or fish.......

Empire · 02-13-2002, 05:43 AM

Wanna see how good IFISH is, go to "thefishsniffer.com" and see their forums. People bickering back and forth, calling each other names. Anyone who can stay on the site for more than 10 minutes is a bigger person than me. Someone here has a quote about combat fishing, this site is about combat posting. Alan

Jim · 02-13-2002, 05:44 AM

Hmm...I have learned of different sites...I am not one to enjoy surfing so I get stuck a little.

The 3 that have been around the longest that I am aware of are: Piscatorial Pursuits very good especially for Olympic Peninsula fishing it has around 3,000 members I thing, then ifish which is awesome for SW Washington and NW Oregon with about 2,000 members then the other washington board that has been around longer than ifish (it was self promoted here by the owner) with a whopping 160? members. So the reality is that there are two very good sites in my opinion with Steelheader.net starting to have a good forum but with absolutely awesome fishing how to's it is a must see! As for the rest....no real need to visit as far as I am concerned. I will be going to that Walleye site...just cuz Fear No Fish said to! Hey Fear....did you see them thundersticks on Ebay??

Well...off for a Steelie/Sturg day...hope to get one or the other.

Jim

Smj · 02-13-2002, 06:00 AM

Here's a site I used to spend alot of time on, 'till I found ifish of course. Lots of good info for the basser plus tech help for boats and motors.

THE REEL HEY_YALL · 02-13-2002, 10:07 AM

How can a site, that's been around longer than ifish, have only 160 members? :shocked:

I am going to steal a quote:

IronHeader · 02-13-2002, 10:35 AM

I am fairly new to this area and to these forums. I have visited most of the ones mentioned here and found some very good info on all of them. I think this board is awesome, even thought I did get a little slap in the hand by one of the moderators for one of my recent posts. But judging by a couple of the posts here it looks like it's ok to slam some people I guess it just depends on who your slamming. I'm not sure what exactly Hey Yall's beef with Gamefishin is and judging by some of things I've read I can see why Jim posted what he did, seems like he has a personal beef with the webmaster there. I personally visited the site and found it very good for WA info. I just visited steelheader.net and found a lot of great info there also. I can see that it may best best just to stay in the background here

Ironheader, welcome, and from the slap-taking king, I was not slamming. Moreless making a bittersweet point. Point being that your board is only as good as your members and what goes into it. I did not slam the board or website; check it out, hell who's to stop you?

Just find it funny how some folks won't leave other folks alone and get on with life. Give a backwoods boy a computer with internet access, throw in his buddies with the same mentality (and weak ass internet connection), and things really get interesting on the boards. Especially if you have to listen to their crap for years.

Phillip Reed · 02-13-2002, 01:19 PM

The Reel Hey_Yall: Did you get the e-mail I sent you about Owner hooks? Do you need any other info? Fished the Siletz(2/12) six fish, drit fished with Owners and never lost one, great day.

FEAR NO FISH! · 02-13-2002, 01:54 PM

Jim,
I have scored over 57 Thundersticks
and
Bomberlong A's since the first of the
year. I am like a virgin in a peeler
joint when I get on that darn site.I
see
all the pretty colors and bid my arse
off. Now if the WDFW lets me buy 50
extra
licenses, I can put out a spread for
walleyes that will rival sputnik. I am
getting all dialed in for Springers
too.
I have developed a better glo treble
using a new glow technology. I'll
email
you tonight with some other secrets.

TEAM SPINY RAY M UNCHER!
TEAM REBA MAG WART!
TEAM RADIOACTIVE GLOW!

IronHeader · 02-13-2002, 02:43 PM

Thanks for the welcome. :smile:

I have no idea what your talking about, but it seemed to me that the post for that site was well intended and the it looks like the mud slinging is one sided. Calling someone and their friends backwoods boys sounds like a slam to me. IMHO I guess its none of my business and frankly I don't really care, just my observation.

I'm looking forward to catching some springers!

Jim · 02-13-2002, 03:34 PM

Ironheader,
I have at least one seat in my boat for F4...wanna come along?

Jim

HT Buzzo · 02-13-2002, 04:08 PM

I found this one a couple of weeks ago, if you're interested in fly fishing,

http://flyfishingforum.com/flytalk/index.htm

horseskull · 02-13-2002, 06:00 PM

Here's another for flyfishing. http://www.westfly.com

hoochie · 02-13-2002, 06:58 PM

Hey, Ironheader, take Bubba (Jim) up on that invite and you'll soon be educated in the ways of the 'other' webmaster.

I'll be in Jim's boat too and look forward to meeting you.

Can you say "Smoked Springer?" with OREO Crow for dessert?

Hoosier Daddy · 02-13-2002, 11:00 PM

Ironheader, you may be right. Most of the guys who were bad for that kind of thing are gone. You just have to take the rest with a grain of salt. Mostly, I think that's what they intend you to do anyway. Frequent what you like. Tis the American way, you don't like it...don't buy it!!
