We need to lighten up a bit and give some polite guidance to our young people. You catch flies with honey and not vinegar.
Thank you for the support. Though I must say I'm not young. I've been around 50 years now. I'm just young/new to flathead. The history, heritage and rarity deserve to be respected and protected. Ty again.
