What has happened to the birth place of SOT fishing?

What's considered a local?

If a local invites me to a wide open bite and then goes and post up a report of all the fish we caught the next day does that make it OK?

We fished LJ a few months ago, everyone was crowded in an area south of me, I was literally fishing alone away from the crowds. I had a double YT hook up and when I landed one of the two YT everyone came my way. Should I have kicked them out of my spot or moved away and let the 'locals' have it?

I could care less how it comes to you but do you literally find your own hot bite Or does someone tell you about it?

Why do some feel the need to share a bite? Because they can.

How many 'hot bites' have there been up and down the coast(SD to Ventura) this year? How many of those were posted on BWE? I know of one local bite that went on for at least two weeks, not a word was posted on BWE or Bloodydecks but the area was as crowded as Walmart on Black Friday. Gee, I wondered how they all found out about it.


You don't need to post a hot bite or a any bite on any website. All you need to do is make a phone call or send a text. I posted these numbers once before but I'll do it again.

4 yakkers text 4 yakkers about a hote bite
4 yakkers each text another 4 yakkers (16 yakkers now know about the bite)
16 kayakers each text another 4 yakkers(64 yakkers now know about the bite)
256 yakkers each text another 4 yakkers(256 yakkers now know about the bite)

you see where this is going?

This place loves you too. However, your math is off.

If 4 know, and tell 4 people. 16 NEW yakkers know, plus the 4 that told them. So, 20 know about the bite.

Those 16 NEW tell 4 each, so now 64 NEW Kayakers know, plus the original 16+4 so we are at 84.
Those 64 NEW tell 4 more people each, so 320 NEW people now know, plus the original 84. So 404...

If we're going to put it on the internet let's at least make it accurate <3

Darn, we sure do have a lot of yakers out here, it's a wonder there are any fish left.

If 1 tells 4 its 1 + 4 = 5
if 5 tell 4 each its 5 x 4 = 20 + 5 = 25
if 25 tell 4 each its 25 x 4 = 100 + 25 = 125
if 125 tell 4 each its 125 x 4 = 500 + 125 = 625

That's a linear equation. Your first example was exponential.

Thanks for clearing that up professor!
