[cool]This compilation of fishing terminologies and slang is currently under development. It is a joint effort, soliciting contributions from all BFT members. However, the bulk of the work of reviewing, formatting and editing is being done by JapanRon and TubeDude.
It is okay to post your new terms and ideas as individual posts, but we would prefer that you simply email or PM them to one of the two guys mentioned above. We will edit out the posts as the terms are integrated into the "master list"
Some of the ground rules for getting your contributions included are:
(1) Do not include profanity or "inappropriate" terminologies...or even "shady" references. We do not want to offend anyone.
(2) Avoid any terms that include racial, ethnic or similar overtones.
(3) DO include the origin or regionality of the term wherever possible. Many folks find it interesting to learn and compare the different localology terminologies.
(4) Don't worry about spelling, grammar or punctuation. Do the best you can to simply provide the term and its general application or useage. The editors will shine it up.
We appreciate all submissions, but we do not plan to give credit for them to the contributors. Sorry.
