Perfect thread! No need to give names no matter how well known or fished its just good practice lest you name somebody's favorite spot. If anybody needs more info, they are free to ask privately and for you to answer(or not answer ) them. These places are certainly not secrets but I see no need to put their names on billboards either.

I think when it comes to fishing, well meaning people don't realize the impact their kindness can mean. I'm not a selfish person by nature but when it comes to fishing, I am a selfish bastard who fiercely protects the places I fish. Part of that is wanting alone time but a big part of it is protecting the fishery/environment. Fishing aside, anglers(literally) trash places and it makes me sick to see this. Merely months after any new ponds or streams are open to the public, the banks are trampled and trash/vandalism are rampant. I hate to generalize about our species but we really are lazy slobs.
