6 years on BFT - wiperhunter2 - 02-12-2008
It has been 6 years since I made the decision to join Bigfishtackle. It is hard to believe it has been that long. A lot of changes have happened over those years. There have been a lot of ups and downs but all in all I'm glad I decided to join. We see seasonal lulls and a lot of spirited discussions[
] but what a ride its been. I'm looking forward to the next six years and wonder what they will bring. Thanks BFT. WH2[signature]

Thanks Todd, I think Kentofnsl and I were the first two members to join BFT/Utah. I think Predator was a moderator then and invited us to join. There were few of us on the site at the time and we were always inviting new members to join. A lot of us came from the old Utahfishfinder site. How did you hear about BFT?

I was wondering if you were going to see this post before your date went by. It's hard to believe it's been that long already.

I found BFT by accident. I moved here from Alaska and was searching the web for info on how to fish here. I still can't get the catching part down but I sure can put in a 12 our day trying. LOL

I just barely passed the 5 year mark myself. I'm guessing there are quite a few people here that joined about that same time. If I remember right, that is the time that the Utahfishfinder site was going downhill quickly, and people were getting kind of nasty there. There were several people, probably those on this thread, that kept recommending this site. I was pretty loyal to the other site since it was a great site for so long (loved the ease of navigating the weekly fish reports by lake) but I finally gave in as the site continued to get worse.

Your right, a lot of us came from UFF. It was the first utah fishing site I found when I first got on line around ten years ago. I agree with you about UFF being a good site until all the flaming started.

My anniversary is easy to remember. 1/1/06. 2 years and some change but my time here has been priceless. Met some irreplaceable friends, lost my best friend that got me started here(Yper) and had some good discussions. Looking forward to many more years with BFT.[cool]
