Tks to RJ and Luke for keeping this forum alive over the years. I just saw Jim Wilson's post on 613Fishing and I figured I'd post it here for the members to see. Cheers guys.

"Hello Fish-Hawk followers, I am Jim Wilson, a father, teacher, and a long time F-H member since 2002. Over the years I have met lots of great people through Fish-Hawk.net, learned a thing or two to improve my fishing and shared some great fishing adventures.
Fish-Hawk.net has been a great resource for fishing information for 20 years, and even though the Internet and social media has changed a lot since Fish-Hawk.Net started many years ago, it is still a valuable resource for new and experienced anglers alike.
Mike L (Fish-hawk), Rob A (Bobber) and then RJ and Luke have done a great job keeping Fish-Hawk.net going for all these years and as a long time Fish-Hawker I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all of them.
As of today, I am starting the journey to continue the legacy of Fish-Hawk.net and hope to continue the tradition of Fish-Hawk.Net being the “Go to Spot” for fishing information for Eastern Ontario and beyond.
I am not computer genius, so I am sure there will be many bumps in the road as learn the “ins and outs of the website and forum, so please bear with me. Over the next few months, I plan to add some new features, so I encourage everyone if you have not dropped by the website lately please check it out and spread the word Fish-Hawk.Net is still going strong."

Good luck JIm. Not sure if I could help much but the offer is there, I'm a good learner. Cheers

Thanks for sharing the post smitty,

I will be looking for a few moderators to help keep an eye on the site and help remove spam. I am still learning the "ins and outs" of everything so not even sure yet what I need help with. lol

Thanks Haulin Bass,

I will be keeping the tournament calendar on the site, but since we are well into the tournament season and I have lots of things I want to do, my goal will be to update the Tournament Calendar over the winter so it will be up to date for the 2022 fishing tournament season.
