Anderoo

[Elton]

I've been wrapped up in a few problems of my own lately, being away from home the best part of two weeks and again next week, as well as having the worst problems in years keeping this server running. It couldn't have happened at a worse time.

 

I just saw mention that Anderoo wasn't posting. Now, I haven't searched properly as to the reason why, but I hope that this is temporary.

 

On a purely selfish level, forums need people like Anderoo (and quite a few of you like him); the ones who stick through thick and thin and forgive me the occasional cock-up. I want all of you who are the backbone of this site, especially, to stick around. I need you. And it isn't just the forums that have benefited from Anderoo - he has also written some great articles, the sort that many people who have never even visited these forums have learnt from.

 

On a personal level, I've met Anderoo a few times now and he is a top bloke. He is just like he is on the forums. He takes the pee out of me, but I forgive him that. My everyday friends all do the same He is one of the guys on here whom I look forward to seeing at the fish-ins.

 

Whatever has happened, let's hope it passes as water under the bridge. The forum will be poorer if any of you 'Anderoos' leave.

I think I read somewhere that he was having a break for a bit.

I hope it's just a short break Andrew's having, and not a long one.

I didn't know anything had happened, until I read the spodding thread yesterday, and saw that things had got a bit silly.

Same here, I had not picked up on the thread and having read it I cannot understand the unwarranted attack on Anderoo's view's; they were clearly based on his experience at a very difficult venue and therefore must be viewed as a valid comment.

Just because another poster's experience is different, it should not develop into a personal vindictive.

No one can blame another poster for having a difference of opinion. At the end of the day there was no attack on Anderoo at all. Lets face it it's easy for a perfectly normal conversation when face to face to sound totally different in writing and can easily be read/ taken in the wrong text.

If Anderoo needs a bit of a break good luck to him. Sometimes it's good to have a break as you can get to wrapped up in things what in reality simply don't matter at all.

I have no great opinion of myself or my abilities, but I think I'd feel that being informed my approach was a "dumbed down" one and that I "would probably never be a good [insert your chosen fish here] angler" constituted an "attack".

I'd say that's an opinion, not an attack. I use the dumbed down approach my self and wouldn't consider being told that a personal attack.

 

As far as I could see it was Lutra who was attacked by kappa....calling him a T>W>A>T is a blatant attack and imo a personal insult like that should be removed and the person who's written it warned for their blatant disregard to board etiquette.

At least Lutra didn't rise to the insult.

[Andrew]

A very personal reply from Lutra to Anderoo !

 

 

 

To be honest Andreoo, I don't know why you persist in replying to bream fishing topic's. By your own admission you have little or no experience of bream fishing and what little bit you have done doesn't seem to have been sufficient in results to have taught you much.

 

IMHO you will probably never be a good bream angler Andreoo. At least not if you persist in only fishing waters like Wingham with a dumbed down bait and wait approach. If we all learnt to fish like that we would all be poor anglers and we would died of old age before we learnt anything.

 

Good bream anglers don't get good only catching one fish a year or from reading second, third, fourth, ......... hand info from other speciheads.

This thread runs the risk of getting just as 'silly' as the other. I don't think Elton or Andrew intended this to turn into a slanging match. We can all read what's been said, and make our own minds up, without it being repeated word for word, and turning into another argument.
