The Online Source for Washington Fishing Information

WAFISH in 2010

Hi everyone,

with 2010 winding down, I am curious to know a few things for the future of this site:

1. What is it that you like best about this site?

2. What is it you least like about this site?

3. What would you like to see added in 2010?

This site has been up for a year now and I want to make sure it continues to get better and grow.

I look forward to hearing your feedback and making the appropriate changes.

Thanks!

-J

Comment by Eric DeLay on January 7, 2010 at 5:27pm: Potter thinks "no one" is one word. Noone?

Comment by Jon Sessler on January 4, 2010 at 9:11pm: Beautifully put Potter.

Especially the "information" part. How many times do we need to read that someone fishes football heads with either a grub or hula grub in the winter?

Comment by Josh Potter on January 4, 2010 at 9:46am: I counted up all the responses and the number of people that would like to laugh AND learn edged out the number of nerds who just want to learn. So we should all feel free to return to our humorous ways except for those of you who had their personality surgically removed at birth. You all know who you are and if you don't somone will remind you at the appropriate time.

Some people may not find my humor (or others humor) entertaining. Well guess what......sometimes I don't find your "information" to be very informative. Much of this is a matter of opinion and noone is forced to visit this site. If you don't like the way a topic is headed then quit reading and if it gets out of control the fun police will surely stop it.

Comment by Shawn O'Connell on January 3, 2010 at 1:34pm: Jon - I think that is the difference people don't get. Most sites like this don't have the network of friends this site does. I've met quite a few people that I get a kick out of. Also all of us that fish the tourney's give each other just as much crap in person as we do on site.

Comment by Jon Sessler on January 3, 2010 at 11:33am: Joel has hit the nail on the head. What many here don't understand, is that Bess, Delay, Hobbs, Reimers, Potter, Grimes, myself and then a spiderweb of others, consider each other friends, and we know each other personally. What you guys have read here, is no different than if you were sitting around having drinks with us prior to a tournament, at a club meeting, or away from fishing. Of all the rotten crap that has been thrown back and forth between us, we are still friends.

Comment by Jon Sessler on January 3, 2010 at 11:18am: Sparky,

I don't want you to leave at all (I can't speak for Berto), when I get bored with crossword puzzles and quantam physics, I try to translate your posts into legible english just for my own amusement. You are one of the originals here, don't go anywhere, you are the type of personality that makes the site work, as opposed to some of the newbies.

Comment by Bill Hovatter on January 3, 2010 at 1:47am: Apparently, there are a lot of egos in fishing. Reading these posts, I realize that there has been as much contention in the Bass Fishing World, as in the Musky World. I say check the egos at the sign-on and use this site for what it is/was intended and I assume that to be informative and entertaining.

Thanks for offering this forum for us growing fisherman!
Bill

Comment by Joel Alinen on January 2, 2010 at 8:23pm: I personally think this site was awesome and is going downhill. I believe the goal of Wafish is to provide a quality fishing resource for anglers. What draws anglers to this site more than others is that it has the best Bass Fishing minds in our state sharing information with fellow bass anglers. Before this site my best source of bass information was The Fishing and Hunting News=) This website is not like others, and should never be. The thing that keeps me logging onto Wafish on a daily basis is to hear from the guys who have proved themselves as quality anglers and have provided quality information to all the viewers of this website…specifically Marc, Jr., Tag, Hogue, Matkowski, and many others in the Wafish community.
This is not Washingtonlakes.com, this is the Wafish.com. As previously stated I also do not enjoy using that site. I personally only use that site to look at topo maps of lakes I wanna fish. I’m sorry but if you like Washington lakes please use that website. This is a website that has collaborated the knowledge of the best bass fisherman in the state! Some of you may feel that the content on this site can be questionabl at times, but the obvious absents of Delay, Sessler, Bess, Potter, etc. has hurt this site. When I first joined this site it was FUNNY as hell and informative. I personally enjoy the ball busting as long as your calling someone out for being a tool…which we have had a growing number of lately!!!!!

Comment by P.J. Koshi on January 2, 2010 at 8:07pm: I like the Calender of events. I guess I just disregard the posts that are not funny to me or have no valuable info. I don't really care about those stupid posts since I usually don't read them. I will say that it is sad when a good topic gets twisted so badly it no longer applies at all. I do miss DeLay's humor and Advice and I am glad to see he is making a return. Jordan and Nick and whoever else you guys do a great job at moderating and keeping up the site. I enjoy the videos, and I plan on making some this next year and posting them. I have learned so much and made more fishing buddies since I have been on this site than I had in my whole life prior to visiting wafish.com.

Thanks Jordan!!!
