Default Fishermen on Facebook?

How many of you fishing fanatics use Facebook?

Everyone these days seems to be on it - be it searching for fly fishing friends, old friends, general browsing or love... I guess?

I'm just wondering as it seems to have become a pretty big part of most peoples days.

Cheers, Kieron

It used to be a big part of my day and I've reconnected with people that I never would have if it wasn't around. Now I think it's full of rubbish and I don't use it as much. Things like farmville etc. What a waste of time!

I use it, but not for anything fishing related. The few people I fish with don't use it and I use these forums to connect with other people

I only went on it for a short time. Just as a stalking aid but as it got harder to thieve identities it's more productive to pose as market research.

Use for keeping inouch with a few otherwise hard to find people and couple of fishy things..

Personally tho I dislike the whole concept of facebook and its many applications and attachments and I am of the mind that facebook is the joint concept of the CIA,FBI,MI6 and Interpoll as a front to keep tab's on us all, people have been arrested for what they have said on fb, it encourages people to talk and message on a large scale and most topical and political issues get aired on it.

I know what Bobmacs gonna say
