After reading all these comments, I agree with both sides. I have to share my store that set me off:

As many know I prefer striper/hybrid fishing over anything. I was on a hot bite about 4ish years ago (before i started guiding) and posted something about it here and mentioned that im going the next day at a particular ramp. I kid you not that next morning I had 4 boats idling awaiting my arrival. I did send them on a goose chase going elsewhere, but lesson learned.

I get bombarded by questions from time to time here. I do not mind. But those asking id assume respect the fact that they are getting answers from 15-18+ years of knowledge learned from trial and error. A lot of time spent, lots of gas burned. I can give someone advise on where to go, but it doesnt mean they can catch them.
