My cycling buddy asked me to post for his elderly father in law that’s trying to sell his stuff as a lot. He’s in his 90s I think and can’t fish anymore.

My post on guided fishing trips has over 15000 views. I don’t think it is AI looking for information. I hope we learn what the cause actually was.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.  ~John Buchan

I have enabled some third party protections to help filter bots and AI scrapers.  It appears to be working as the number of guests has dropped substantially.  Still not all the way there, but at least I am able to access the site pretty reliably right now.  Let’s see how this goes.

The scale of this boggles my mind.  ~200k unique “visitors”, served up ~500k requests in the past 24 hours.  I have enabled Cloudflare “Bot fight mode” for the site.

Just a portion of your life purpose? You need to get your priorities straight...
