Wished Born2fish all the best when he started his "business" but I personally find the promotional posts a bit tedious.
That's not true.
Let me start by saying that I am.not biased as I'm not affiliated with teamborn2fish for quite a while now for personal reasons. Not going to answer PMs regarding this so dont ask. But the gist of it is, it's not what I wanted to do. and everything got a bit too business orientated for me personally.
Everyone who is/was on the team has known phil for quite a while and fished together for a while too. Hence he asked all of them if they wanted to be part of the team as pro anglers and contribute to the site in terms of reports and such.
There was no criteria. You didnt have to own a boat and didnt have to live in the western suburbs. Those that were asked were the ones that was always fishing with him.
The spelling mistakes were mentioned to phil even before he started up the website. Looks like he never listened to what anyone has had to say about it. And believe me we mentioned it to him countless times..
With the whole advertising bit on here. I have no idea what he and John had going so I'll just leave it at that.
He is a genuinely nice guy but also likes to do things his way and his way only. That may or may not be a good thing for the business and everyone else involved...but that's up to him to work out...
Hope that has clarified a few things for everyone here.
Cheers
