Who Is BWE? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Handymansd · 07-21-2011, 08:52 AM

Wow... My god I am getting old!

Talk to Adi and Brent, the might have a idea how this thing got rolling.

Unfortunately hackers have destroyed BWE's history. Greg Knab was the one who came up with the original "BWE man" he started this site with Corey, Al and I helping out back about 10 years ago. Look at some of the old videos on the home page to see some old faces. Greg now lives in WA and guides flyfishing. He comes down occasionally and fishes here. Adi stepped in for IT expert services. Brent bought the site a few years back to keep it alive, implemented the camera and keeping up with all the upgrades needed to ward off the SPAM BOTS. It has changed from a simple scrolling fish report to what it is today. I help moderate..........in moderation.

We used to call in from the water "fresh off the horn" reports to make everyone working suffer through their day.

Thanks guys for all the work....

This site has become my daily "fix" for over a year now....when I can't get on the water.

My wife calls this site "Fishbook" as in Facebook.....

Daily fix? I think it's my all-day fix. Besides NFL network. God I'm a loser.

ok this is too damn funny, great question and even better answer, my wife too calls it fishbook, but it is a daily, and sometimes nightly visit, and she is right there with me as I read some of the great posts all of you write, show her the pics, and it keeps her up on our lingo, she knows most of the slang when I talk to her about whats going on, very cool...thanks to all involved in keeping this site BWE as we know it today

BWE = BLOCKING WORK EVERYDAY

Thanks BWE for not allowing me to focus on work on a constant, day in and day out basis. I would rather be fishing however I cannot but

to those that have that luxury. I however will sit here all day long and dream what if I was out there right now

like all of you.

Many of us wish that we could return to that kind of openness.

But BWE was small then.... the fact of the matter is that with ONE POST, a steady bite that has been going on for a week with only a few guys on it everyday, WILL turn into 30+ boats in 12 hrs. And if that report mentions "squid" you can probably add another 30 boats to that #....and incase you guys havn't been out recently, 60 boats is only about 1/3 of the "fleet"!!

I really do love reading the reports tho!!
