I'm sure all the newbies like myself would greatly appreciate that, and would give the oportunity for everybody to learn things from eachother. I believe the moderators should come together and take the resposibility to post frequent How-To's such as How to build Flagging Jugs, How to build a rod holder, how to service your boat, how to catch crappie, catfish, how to fillet catfish/crappie, how to descale crappie, etc. but be very descriptive and add lots of pictures. Maybe you guys come up with a standard format for posting How-To's and cheryl could review/ modify and post in the How-To section. Just so that the posts are similar in formating and consistant. I might be asking for too much... but I figured I would give my .02 cents while we were in the process of whipping things in shape. I'm willing to help in that part as well. I plan on making things, and take pictures during the process so that I could share. I'm sure there are already lots of how-to's lost in the forums somewhere, and quite frankly, don't think they are getting the visualization that those helpful posts really deserve.
What do you think?
