Over the years, we've had a variety of people join the WCF community. Some have stayed, others have moved on. And along the way, there has been a controversy or two on these boards. One former member - Andrew Ragas, was certainly not without controversy on many of his posts. His passion for fishing was never in question however, and generally the controversy in any said posts were not with any malice and were for the most part innocuous. Andrew eventually "moved on".

That passion and fervor for fishing lead Andrew to start his own site and subsequently put his graphic design skills to good use with a recently launched online fishing magazine. Simply stated - he's done an outstanding job. Quite honestly it's been cool to see Andrew channel all that energy once expressed on these boards here, into something as impressive as this.

Have a look and enjoy...

And this is the reason why I am growing particularly fond of this forum. Unlike most of the others, sharing of useful info, people, and other sites is not limited to those who pay to advertise. It is about sharing of info for the betterment of all of us.

Thanks Jason.

Andrew has a talent that's for sure!! And believe it or not... The kid grew up ;) Great Read!!
Most people have never questioned Andrew's passion and talent in digital media. I even know someone who fished with him once and he reported that Andrew was a pretty cool dude and he wouldn't mind fishing with him again. It's just his know-it-all attitude, argumentative nature, and lack of tact on the internet which leads to the disdain that many people hold for him. He'll probably go someplace in the fishing industry if he filters some of his thoughts before hitting submit.
 
I wasn't on the forum back when all that controversy took place.
All I can say is that, being neutral in this, i can be objective: and it looks damn good! Haven't read the whole thing, but what I have read so far makes sense and is interesting.
Keep up the good work!
