Shouldn't a real fish report contain at least the following:
Type of fish caught
Time of day fish was caught
Relatively specific location of the catch
Water depth
Tackle used
Specific bait / artificial used
Now I know people don't want to give coordinates to their honey-holes and all and they probably shouldn't but what's the real reason for a fishing report? I always thought the motive behind a real report was to help others chase the bite and catch more fish...a kinda pay it forward of sorts? If it's simply an opportunity to gloat then I'm all wrong.
Let the brawl begin!

I think it should include hooking the fish and handing off to you
A fishing report is in friday's sports section of the paper.
A fishing report is going down to the landings when the boats arrive at the end of the day and seeing everyone's catch.
A fishing report is what happened yesterday. The ocean can change in a 1/2 hr.
Just get on the water. Like my dad always said "if you don't have a line in your not going to catch a fish".
