Used to scare the crap out of me with those 'Don't eat more than 1/2 a fish month' and 'Keep away from eating any fish from 'Lake X' if you were of child bearing years ..HaHa..
Can you be more specific TS? We've posted the poll on the Forum, at the start of this thread.
I believe what TS is talking about is all other polls have been right in the thread in this section not a link to a poll in another area (home page). I agree why not just run the poll in this thread? Not really that big of a deal, I did follow link and vote but might get better results just having it included in this thread.Quote:

TroutSlayer & duckslayer:
The purpose of the poll on the Forum is to create a dialogue whereas the poll on the main site tallies up the results, which we then publish as a graph in the next issue of the magazine. We are relentlessly thorough in our polling procedures, but perhaps we can keep the poll as a sticky in the future so you all can enjoy it, too.
Exactly. We used to have the actual poll locked at the top of the "Poll" thread. All members could watch the progress without leaving the board.Quote:

Wonder if it could be where the voters are located. If you fished familar lakes/rivers you may not need it. Myself, I don’t have a regular lake so I’m constantly hitting new spots and am interested in not only the types of fish but also if they’re edible. The guide does give a good reference to the species in the noted lake.
