Thank-you Fishhound for doing whatever you did [] I'm not sure how I hyjacked Carol's thread, OR for that matter what "threads" are. I'm trying hard to understand how to participate in here, I sure don't mean to hurt anyone. [angelic]

[black][size 3]No problem. You did not do anything wrong. You merely asked a question and requested information. What I did was to detach your post and create a separate thread of it because I thought it was a good topic and it deserved to be treated on it's own merit.[/size][/black]
[black][size 3][/size][/black]
[black][size 3]It was I who did not want to "hijack" Carol's thread by introducing off topic information. Hi-jacking a thread is typically considered changing the topic of the thread starter's original intention. [/size][/black]
[black][size 3][/size][/black]
[black][size 3]Oh, BTW - Welcome to BFT, and feel free to ask any question you want information about.[/size][/black]

Welcome aboard Bee Bee and thanks for sharing with us.

Over time you will get used to how the system works. Sometimes we forget and bend the rules a bit, but for the most part we try to keep everything on tract. That helps to keep the topics more interesting and allows others to read as well as interact with each others topics.

Feel free to ask any questions that you may have. As you may have seen, we do have a large variety of different general topic boards to chose from.

Weather it be a freshwater question, Saltwater, species specific or otherwise, we will have it here.

Furthermore, reguardless of what you caught or where, we like to share reports here. Once the report is done and a few of your fish have followed you home for dinner, you can stop by the recipe board and see a variety of ways to show off your catch at the dinne table.

We hope you enjoy your stay here and keep them Northerns Coming.[cool]
