What do you guys think about using shanty for summer time fishing reports? Really enjoy reading all the reports and looking at all the pictures.

I like that idea. Not real impressed with MFF.

I like shanty a lot more than fish finder. Just seems easier to navigate and runs smoother. Mobile version is much better also. Just my 2 cents.

Ditto, Shanty is much easier to deal with, maybe have a softwater thread at top of page

Agreed! I have tried setting up an account on MFF for the last week and it constantly denies me and says I didn't answer the security questions correctly?? Not sure why but its annoying. Any body else have problems getting on there?

i do agree with you guys for the saek of having one website instead of three it just doesnt make much sense to me. i would prefer to be able to just come on here and be able to see ice, open water, and hunting threads

I tried all last year and was never able to get an account. I haven't tried this year yet. Anybody that was able to get an account have any tips on how to get through or is it just luck of the draw?

Ok cool. Glad to hear others feel the same as I do. Myfishfinder has always been a pain in the u know what. Shanty is so well set up and we are all familiar with this site so why not? Hope to hear from all of you year round and see more great pics and videos throughout the summer. Iceshanty4life:-)

I'm in for using IS for warm weather fishing info. I also tried several times to set up a myfishfinder account and got the same error as mentioned above. I also tried emailing the "help" feature on the site and my email was eventually returned undelivered. Not sure what us up with myfishfinder.

I've been watching the posts in this topic today. I've never been an active fan of MFF because of logging in issues. A couple hours ago I tried to log into MFF and it told me 6 consecutive times that my password was incorrect and then accepted it on the 7th try. Annoying!! There is talk over there about this thread, so I commented in a post and came back over here. Personally, I would love to use this one forum year round. One forum to use all year just makes more sense to me. My hardwater season is not over yet, so I'll still be active until it ends. I'll definitely be lurking around on this forum throughout the summer to see how much activity there is. Take care & good luck to everyone thru the year!!

I think its the way your answering the security question, the answer to one of the question is fishusa, lowercase all one word. Inevitably all three sites die at certain times of the year. My fish finders not so bad, it just doesn't get the traffic that ice shanty gets.

njoy · « **Reply #12 on:** Mar 11, 2013, 10:13 PM »

Looks like i'm having to stay here! Tells me my username is wrong. Been the same on both sites for a couple years. Tried 5 times, don't need the !!!!!!!

once huntandfishmontana.com gets into full swing we should be set

Some people are on here year round. The real diehards I guess!

Some people just prefer ice to open water.

Neptune · « **Reply #16 on:** Mar 12, 2013, 10:37 AM »

I have been on both for some time now and there is definitely less traffic on MFF. People are also much tighter lipped about open water fishing than hard water, both on the forums and in person(this has been my personal experience).

I'll be moving back to MFF over the next month.

Mff won't let me start an account so I'm kinda stuck here but after reading all of the comments I've read that doesn't sound so bad

It says I answered the security question wrong it may be because I do all of this on my phone but I had no problem with IS and never have

Tacojuan · « **Reply #20 on:** Mar 13, 2013, 11:06 PM »

Ok I got it after reading that other post I didn't realize the security question was case sensitive thank you adk Roy

adkRoy · « **Reply #21 on:** Mar 14, 2013, 06:23 AM »

You are welcome. See you on MFF.

craver · « **Reply #22 on:** Mar 14, 2013, 09:41 AM »

I had an issue with fishusa question but since it has been pretty good. i will be using both for a while

Tacojuan · « **Reply #23 on:** Mar 16, 2013, 02:17 AM »

So my first soft water report for the Yellowstone is as follows: plenty of ling and cats hopefully more and some more variety tomorrow. Will let you guys know

njoy · « **Reply #24 on:** Mar 16, 2013, 09:40 PM »

curdog · « **Reply #25 on:** Mar 17, 2013, 04:50 PM »

im new to mff but it seems very quiet so far nothing like shanty was a month ago

Mogi · « **Reply #26 on:** Mar 17, 2013, 05:24 PM »

Im sure mff will explode with info before to long. It helped me out a ton last year.

Tacojuan · « **Reply #27 on:** Mar 17, 2013, 06:11 PM »

Yeah I was looking at some of the old threads on MFF and it seems like less people post and when they do its not nearly as often. Maybe it was just the threads I was looking at but I don't think it's near as active as IS

adkRoy · « **Reply #28 on:** Mar 17, 2013, 06:42 PM »

In the winter, a lot of guys are laid off so they have more time to fish and post. In the open water season, eople are back to work and don't fish and post as much.

Strippnthedream · « **Reply #29 on:** Mar 17, 2013, 07:51 PM »

N a lot of people r tight lipped about there soft water fishing spots don't want everybody n there children over running there secret spots I guess.
