Help with an addiction

I need help!

I find myself going to the computor many, many times a day for a fishing fix! IDA and all the other sites take me 15 minutes to rip through unless I have to stop and make a smart reply or post.

Geez, I would rather read and post then fish!

I need help!!

And now what’s up with the Dvd’s? Are we releasing those so I have something to do BETWEEN reading and posting?

Here’s the deal guy’s (and gals) I don’t want to be cured. I like doing this. My problem is cash……..how about everybody chipping in ten bucks a week so I can quit pretending to be working.

You do that and I promise to rip the Vikings, Bears, Packers, politicians, war lords, creepy people,Walleye guy’s, and anybody else that comes along!

Seriously, thanks to all the people involved putting in the hard work to provide cheap entertainment to myself and others. Keep up the good work.

And you think you have it bad! I’m here 10 hours a day!

I wish I had some new distractions for you…. our next clip comes out on Monday. The entire DVD is on schedule for the December release.

Here’s my prediction for upcoming fishing reports, etc….

Steve and Dustin will keep posting hawg walleyes, Scott Steil will awe us with early ice piggies and Koonce will catch more slab bluegills on early ice then any man should.

The heck with the other outdoor sites. IDA is the only one I need to get my daily fix. Stop waisting your time on the other sites. I love this site. It is the only thing that gets me through some of my slower days in the office. Even when I’m swamped I do my best to check the newest posts a couple times a day. I enjoy IDA because it focuses on the region of the country that I live, work and enjoy the outdoors in.

Nope, can’t drop the rest.

Gotta feed the addiction!

WC I follow to keep up on the tourny action and to “pull a few chains” if you know what I mean.

The other Minnesota site I don’t post on (I’m not willing to toe the line) but I do lurk around.

I’ve been hanging around here since it was Fishing The River, I’m not going anywhere unless I get bounced for not drinking the Viking kool-aid. (can’t wait for the stadium drive to start again!)

My wife refers to IDA as fish porn. She assumes there has to be porn hidden on the site somewhere for me to spend that much time “reading fishing reports”. She loves it when I go fishing with “a guy I met on-line”.

My name is paul, and I am a IDAcholic. Hi paul

I feel your pain man. I know what your going thru.

What helps me is to talk about it. I mean this site I spread the word as much as I can. And try to attract as many followers as I can.

I am kinda of an IDA evangilist.

and with that I will pass.

I have the same problem of multiple visits daily. 2 years ago I could hit the site once a day and cover everything in no time. Now it takes me hours just to get through a few forums. Too much info on here for one guy to handle.

I can get it on my phone too, not good.

Paul, don’t feel bad, you aren’t alone. There are thousands of us.
Thanks, Bill

Ya my wife doesnt understand…either im in the deer stand or on ida talkin about what did or didnt happen in the deer stand…she thinks there must be lots of girls on here im chattin with…but then i show her some of the posts and she understands

If I had your “problem”, I would be a single man. Can’t say I haven’t thought about the mobile option.

Get a Treo. I can take pics on my phone, download them onto IDA and check the forums all at the same time. Then jump on AOL and Comcast and make changes to my fantasy teams, and check my emails, book guide trips and order pizza online.
This is bad, real bad.

Cool Tuck! What do they run?? I’ve been looking for a way to get on line more.

Like you need to be online more! Didn’t you and Al Gore invent the internet together?

About $350 new…

I have the treo- make sure you pay the 2 bucks a month for the insurance- they do not survive a swim in the toilet

I just discovered IDA a few months ago. I was at Hunters Point and noticed the IDA banner there. I looked it up when I got home and have been addicted ever since! I’ve really been impressed with the people on this site, both members and staff. Everyone is positive, informative, entertaining and supportive. I have learned a TON from you guys in the short time I’ve been here. I just signed up as a member today and I’m looking forward to getting to know others who share the passion for fishing! I’m addicted and LOVING IT!

Hey thanks for the welcome! Walleyes and BIG crappies are my favorites. I also enjoy Large and Smallmouth bass fishing. What are your favorite lakes to fish?
