    Interesting study about international fishing destinations

    Heads up fellow anglers!

    Have you ever found it hard to choose your next fishing vacation destination?

    I know I have. There are many sources providing information about today's hotspots, the majority however is commercial and unstructured rather than objective and scientific in their appraisal about the attractiveness of destinations.

    I have taken the initiative to change that by starting a virtually global study, with the cooperation of many fishing organisations such as IGFA and magazines like Sport Fishing and BlueWater, to address this matter.

    I am inviting fishermen from all over the world to fill out my survey, providing them the opportunity to share their thoughts about the strenghts and weaknesses of the destinations they have visited and their expectations of the ones they have not.

    Such a study has never been conducted before. Results will be published later this year in Sport Fishing Magazine and IGFA's International Angler.

    Now is your chance to contribute to a body of knowledge that will help you and your fellow anglers in the near future.

    Please take a moment to fill out the survey at www.fishingtourismstudy.org

    Awesome initiative

    This is an awesome initiative.

    I have already filled out the survey.

    By the way, I believe you can win a bronze marlin sculpture worth $3400!

    I REALLY DON'T GET THREADS LIKE THIS ....SORRY FOR POOPING ON YOUR BIG STUDY PARADE HERE.

    YOU SAY YOU ARE APPROACHING THIS IN THE SCIENTIFIC WAY.....WELL SCREW THE SCIENTIFIC WAY...THATS BEEN THE PROBLEM FOR DECADES NOW....TOO MANY WANNA BE SCIENTIST MEDDLING IN SHIT THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

    SO WHEN YOUR STUDY IS DONE YOU ARE GOING TO TELL THE WORLD WHAT IS THE BEST PLACE TO GO FISH? I SMELL A RAT HERE...THE PEOPLE DO NOT NEED YOU TO DO THAT DUDE....


    WHAT WE HAVE HERE ARE TWO PEOPLE OR SHOULD I SAY TWO USERNAMES WHO JUST SINGED UP TODAY TO SOLEY PROMOTE THEIR PERSONAL STUDY...I BET IT IS SAFE TO SAY THESE TWO USERNAMES GO HAND IN HAND AND ARE ONE IN THE SAME....TO REGISTER HERE TWICE JUST TO PROMOTE YOUR STUDY WITH A QUICK REPLY IS DOWN RIGHT SILLY...THE SIMPLE FACT THAT YOU ARE JUST NOW FIGURING OUT THAT YOU NEEDED TO SIGN UP ON SPORTFISHERMEN DOT COM JUST TO GET HEARD AROUND THE WORLD IS ENOUGH TO LET ME KNOW YOU ARE CLUELESS TO OUR NEEDS....JUST MY OPINION

    YOU SAY YOUR STUDY WILL BE PUBLISHED IN SPORTFISHING MAG AND THE IGFA MAG OR WHATEVER IT IS THEY HAVE... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    I DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO FISHING MAGAZINE'S AND I AM DEFINTITELY NOT A MEMBER OF THE IGFA

    I LITERALLY DISPISE IT WHEN SOMEONE LIKE YOU USES AN INTERENT FISHING FORUM SUCH AS www.sportfishermen.com TO DRAW ATTENTION TO A STUPID STUDY, THEN BOLDLY PROCLAIMS THAT THE STUDY WILL BE PUBLISHED IN TWO PAPER MAGAZINES! THAT IS AN INSULT DUDE...WTF???


    DUDE! GIVE US A BREAK HERE....DO YOU THINK THIS WEBSITE IS A FREAKIN GAME OR SOMETHING? WHY WOULD SFC MEMBERSWANT TO HELP YOU WITH A STUDY ONLY TO HAVE YOU PUBLISH IT IN SOME MAGAZINE THAT MOST PROBABLY DON'T SUBSCRIBE TO?

    IT'S NOT FAIR TO THIS SITE FOR YOU TO DO THIS IMO...

    FORGET THE MAGAZINES DUDE! WHY NOT USE SPORTFISHERMEN DOT COM TO "PUBLISH YOUR RESULTS INSTEAD OF THESE MAGAZINES DUDE? YOU SEEM TO HAVE NO PROBLEM SPAMMING SFC TO HELP YOU WITH THIS STUDY SO WHY DO YOU FEEL A MAGAZINE WILL HAVE MORE READERS??? I REALLY DON'T GET IT....


    I FOR ONE AM BOYCOTTING YOUR STUDY AND YOUR BRONZE SCULTOR BRIBERY TRICK.....I WILL NOT BE A PART OF IT....GEEEEEZUS LIKE WE NEED ANOTHER STUDY!.....NOPE....WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER STUDY DUDE....STUDIES HAVE BEEN FORCED DOWN OUR FISHBOXES FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND IT'S ALL THE SAME BULLSHIT......WHERE WERE YOU BACK IN MARCH WHEN WE HELD THE D.C. RALLY? UHHH? WE DIDN'T SEE A STUDY THREAD FROM YOU BACK THEN DID WE? I DIDN'T SEE YOU IN D.C. THERE SUPPORTING THE EFFORTS OF REAL FISHERMEN.....

    AND IF I FIND OUT YOU RECEIVED SOME OBAMA GRANT MONEY TO MAKE THIS BIG STUDY OF YOURS, I AM REALLY GONNA BE PISSED.



    I'M WAHOONBOX....AND I AM SICK OF FRIGGIN STUDIES!

    Got to agree with the Box on this one.

    Let's do a study to show what shithole 3rd world countrys we can support. Someplace you got to carry k&r insurance to walk down the street, that's always good.

    Why not publish something that shows the best area to fish in US water w/ US captains?
