What happen when we chose to reveal our secret fishing spot

[fishfight]

I got this funny image from another board. WAS THIS IMAGE PHOTOSHOPED or do they have to hire extra people to take this funny snapshot?

I remember the First Original fishing BBS board created by UofT 20+ years ago, where everyone was happy to contribute their honey hole, yet every honey hole hardly ever gotten crowded. The BBS forum was very primitive, no images can be attach, no GPS existed then, so to share one`s secret spot, one needs to make every effort in describing in detail the driving location . Very few were asking about pointers, since so much more fish available, so one does not need to be as experience then. Also less assortment of tackle or lures available then.

During Salmon pier fishing season 15+ years ago, 5 fish in few hours were considered slow, every rod beside me were bending down within 5 minutes interval after casting. 8-15 lb mono was the norm, and anglers were patiently waiting for someone to land their fish, yet no one complained about how long it took for a person to land their fish, since everyone can get their fair share of fish in those prime evenings. I also remembered hardly anyone ever kill their fish obviously in front of us just for their roe. No long rod either, just whatever rod you own was acceptable by everyone beside you.
