Fake news.  There have been a lot more people sign up to NCKA over the years.  We used to cull accounts that had zero posts but were a year or more old.  I stopped doing that a few years back as I had no idea why I was spending all that time doing it.

Many more stats here ... http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php?action=stats

Happy New Year Eric! 

You've been a big inspiration to the community.  As always, thank you for helping me find my way to NCKA from watching all your videos 10+ years ago.  Looking forward to all your reports this year!

Now we know who to blame!   :smt005

Happy New Year! Im a newbie and saw the more recent tubers before I found Eric's, learned about NCKA, and had to try it out.  Glad I made it to the party.

The landlord video always gets my heart pumping. 



My hands still sweat watching it.
