2 Years and four days ago, I joined the Bass Resource forum looking for some answers on what to get for my first decent combo. I can't find that thread anymore, but I know I got some of the most friendly, educated, and helpful advice in many many pages. 3,300 posts later, i'm still kickin, and you guys are still #1 on my most frequented websites.hp.png The knowledge I've gained has been tremendous, and believe it or not, I sucked at fishing too, haha. Th cumulative knowledge on this website is unfathomable, and I can truly say that of all the forums I've belonged on, I've never been on one this nice, and friendly. Even when there is a heavy debate, it's just a debate about the subject, nothing more.

And a shoutout to all the moderators, and many more that I cant remember off the top of my head. You all have done a fantastic job at doing what you do, I've never personally moderated a forum myself, but I can imagine "It's not easy, being cheesy."

And a big thank you to Glenn, who keeps the site up and running. Without you, this post would never be made, none of us would have any the bond that we do, and more importantly, millions of fisherman worldwide would probably not be as succesful, or as interested in the sport of bass fishing as they are today.

Also, to our sponsors, without you, well, I don't know if we would be where we are today, but you all have certainly helped, in many ways, and I am never shy to recommend a product of yours, as a sponsor of Bass Resource. In fact, I use over 14 of our sponsors regularly, and the list seems to be ever growing. I have actually switched most of my hooks to Mustad over from Gamakatsu, mainly because they support the site I love, and they make a better hook IMO.

Either way, I love this place, 2 years, 3,300 posts, and i'll still be coming back for more.

I got into fishing last year. Started out just throwing bloodworms in the Deleware catching tiny stripers. Found this site shortly after and ive been hooked on bassin since. I love doing it and learning about it just as much as i do with the guitar. This site has been invaluable in teaching me everything i need to know about bass fishing. If you arent visiting bassresource.com everyday, youre missing out on tons of good info to make you a better angle. BR FOR LIFE! Does this site have any stickers, hats, shirts etc for sale?

I went fishing with my dad a couple of times when i was younger before he started leaving and coming back into my life. Never learned anything cause i was too young though. Later on in life at about 16 i became interested in fishing again with a buddy of mine. His interest died after a few months but mine kept growing. Thats when i started looking online for resources to learn since i had no one to learn from. I remember when i found BR i think i stayed up late for 3 days glued to the computer reading all of RW posts about how to get started with senkos and fat ika's. The difference in rod power and action for specific techniques and lures. Asking tons of questions about how to fish what lure in what time of the year and how to work it. It has been 6 years now and i feel i have come a long way.

Before i found BR i was casting 4" senkos with bobbers wondering why i couldnt get bit. Fast forward 6 years to me locating bass holding on a log 15 ft under water that i found using electronics. I feel i have come A LONG LONG LONG WAY. I without a doubt owe it to Bass Resource and all of the members.

The thing that i appreciate the most is knowing that i can teach my son when he gets a little bit older ( he is barely 2). Not trying to give a sob story but i never got to enjoy those things with my dad so i look forward to answering any question he has when he is old enough to get out there with me. Again, without BR i would not be able to do this. Big thanks to Glenn, the mods and everyone who has answered a question or posted something informative.
