One thing I' ve learned is that fishing is as diversified as people are. If there aren' t a lot of people form your area, they probably can' t help you much. What works well in one area of the world may not in another due to climate and weather, habitat, and just the type of fish. There' s been a few times I' ve asked a question and have gotten few replies. It' s not that the people are ignoring you, they just don' t have anything to add. Sometimes I click on a post just to find out what it really is, then I find that I have no idea of how to answer the question. Other time I actually know something. When I ask people what lures they use for walleye, I leave more confused than when I came. I don' t know what floating jigs or whatever you' ns call ' em, carolina and texas jigs are, so when they tell me to use this stuff it just leaves me more confused. For these reasons I may not reply to something that I read. Or I may just stay away from the post ' cause judging by the title I don' t know anything about it. Like posts about boats, I steer clear ' cause I' ve never fished from a boat. Best thing to do is take a deep breath and tarry a little longer. Try your question in your regional forum too. It' ll probably be northeast. I' ll second the notion about it being hard to find a better forum. This place is pretty great.
