the thing also is that this site has been up for somewhere around 20 years now. Almost every somewhat general question has been asked in the past and can be found in google.
The only new thread coming out would be the fishing report for salmon/steelhead for the season and considering that there is no steelhead thread, the salmon thread in the fall is the only thing to gain traction.
Also helps that salmon is #1 in popularity by a mile and a good chunk of people only fish for salmon and not steelhead.
Maybe breaking up threads such as different run timings could get some traction, but that in reality only falls onto the Capilano for bluebacks/Ambleside which not many people fish compared to the vedder. Also doesn't help that the Capilano bluebacks/Ambleside has a super shallow learning curve, and as an Ambleside fisher myself, you see the same people there every weekend so ultimately a report is not needed for that fishery moreso.

the solution to the lack of threads or posts is to post something.

I was curious so I went on his Youtube page and saw that he has a new video up promoting fishing in Trumpistan and I will be removing myself from Fishing with Rod. I remember defending him from racist crap 20 years ago so I am a little sad to leave but, really, Trumpistan?

I noticed the BnR video as well Gord. I haven't watched it.  But it's about making a living. No one down in Oregon has likely noticed the controversy. I hope any upcoming contract renewals here are unaffected. I only say that as I am an empathetic person & had some similar experiences many years ago though they lacked the exploitive overtones.

You could send Rod a PM & ask he make your user account inactive. If he ever signs back on and reads his mail he may do it! That's about the only way I know. But you will miss all those gaming infomercials scattered around the various posts! What a shame!

Take care and see you on the other side.
