A few days ago I turned on the "views" feature in the message boards which allows logged in users to see how many times a thread has been viewed. For me it's been enlightening. Seems that the saltwater board is definitely the happening place. I'm going to try to use that information to make the site better and more useful for everyone.
In the next week or so I am going to be implementing some new boards and changing the format of some of the special boards like the stardust board and the centralcoastbass.com board. What I'm hoping to do is bring together all of the fishing sites that I am the webmaster on and merge their message boards into calfishing while still retaining each site's individuality. Should be interesting...
