The last I heard,im sure he said he had enough of posting because of the Idiot responses.
Aye???

What idiot responses???? I wish he had told me that he wasn't happy.

Greg if you see this can you Pm me mate.

It was a while back Lee,before you was back modding.The fact he isnt posting may well be nothing to do with it.It was back during when he was catching Hounds and took some stick for posting the location.Maybe he is just on holiday or something?

I remember another member had a go at him about giving away a mark and he was not happy about it and said he would not be posting any more. However there were so many responses in his favour that he decided to carry on. I have seen posts from him since.
Perhaps he is busy at work or fishing?
His last post was on the 20th July but he logged on only 5 days ago:huh:

whilst i may not be gregd,their is a element within this board that seem content to see others leave,just to massage their own egos.gregd was one of the most informative/productive sea anglers the south east forum had.
its jealousy. the kind of people who bad mouth sea angler. they see yates etc catch decent fish and are to ignorant so they tell themselves that the dont really catch them. crap fishermen.

i have to say that greg may be an alright sea angler. im by no means calling greg a fruad so dont take offence greg:roll1: but when you dont get the whole picture, you never know he may of had half a dozen dud sessions before he gets a good session. so what im getting at is that when an angler puts up nice pics etc , oh wow hes done it again. not quite true. just expressing opinion so please of greg etc reads this i have no beef or anything with you:clap3:

will just because you have been courted by some within the magazine circles,what does that mean you never blank,tell the truth,you may have blanked many times before your article was printed,i dont think you did but you know,who knows.gregd was always informative blanking or not,gave good insight to where he was fishing rather than leaving it to pm me.what im getting at is you might read a magazine but not get the whole picture,likewise some may think your a top young fisherman reading some magazines.never seeing your blanks.

to be honest ive read gregs posts when hes blanked so its not like he dont let you know. the fellas a bloody good angler in my view and IF hes become disheartened with the site for some reason then its a great loss. ive always found him willing to help less experienced sea anglers like myself and having fished with him once or twice from what i know hes a nice bloke.
maybe he aint been fishing? maybe he aint stopped fishing? im sure hell be back soon enough.

having fished with or near Greg quite a few times this year, I can tell you he really does keep catching again and again and again, and don't forget he won the Dover festival and I believe the team event at the all england ( Jassyfa can confirm this or not ) so he's an allround consistent angler, not just a one fish specialist

I haven't bumped into him since he went away, we wondered if his missus had put her foot down considering how much time he has spent out houndbashing this season, or perhaps he's just recharging his batteries before the cod rush - to be honest, now the hounds are pretty much over, normal fishing almost seems like an anticlimax

It has nothing to do with jelousy,what could he possibly be jelous about? Hes a good angler who puts in the time effort and money to catch what he catches,and he has the right to post hes catch reports on here the same as anybody else,but some people didnt like the reports going on here and as previously stated i think there were some moody responses from other (jelous) anglers. So maybe hes decided not to post anymore,which is a shame,i met him 2 or 3 times and hes a nice bloke,put in the effort and do the homework yourself like greg does

I think it is noticeable that in the last few months there are far less catch reports on the South East Forum, whether this is due to the poor fishing or not is another question, but, I for one feel that it is not. Members, it seems, are now afraid to post there catches because of flack received, either by the catch and release brigade or the don't give away the marks preachers. For gods sake this is a fishing forum to report or fishing trips and discuss them, not a forum to impose your beliefs on other people, if you don't want here catch reports or find out about marks and methods to catch the fish, WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THIS FORUM??????????
Lets get the SE Forum back to normal with good catch (or in my case blanking) reports, friendly banter and friendly rivalry, The forum is getting boring since all this criticism by the holier than thou lot.

Well said:clap3::clap3::clap3:
If it was my site I would rather see a couple of thousand less members but a lot more info and reports.
Some members unfortunately see forums as a battleground where they can have a pop at people they otherwise would not be able to.
However poor the fishing may be at times, it is still worth posting a report, even if it just saves someone else from going to the same place.

well said issy i enjoy the reports even if someone has blanked,its not all about catching fish all of the time,i would rather go fishing and blank with people who are my friends and can enjoy the session than fish on my own and catch.also having a young family my fishing trips are one a month if im lucky so reading reports is how i get my fishing fix, so please everyone keep posting even if you blank.. :hug:

spot on issy i joined this forum for advice and reports due to my family and i moving into kent from surrey in feb this year and as i didnt know the area info from the locals is needed info im not the worlds best fisherman and will be the first to say so im not someone who fishes every single spare moment that i can i can only fish on planned days due to family or work commitments like im sure many of you on here are in the same situation so to me reports from fellow fishermen on local marks showing either good or bad results are invaluable to me. advice on rigs i have asked for in the past the response was massive and for that im gratefull but there are some people that wont give out there tips and tricks that they use as they feel that this gives them the edge in there fishing over others and i understand this . i never knew the gentleman gregd but from what i have read on this thread he was one hell of a guy and a damb fine fisherman too i have never seen any of his reports but i would have liked to maybe on day i will see a report by him posted in the near future and i look forward to reading it so lets keep this forum as it should be to help others like me that dont know the areas they fish well and to give advice where and when its needed because one day it might be you that needs advice and will be gratefull to those that help you

Everyone has days that dont go so well, even expert fishermen like Yates. That's just the way it is.

In my opinion Greg was and is a good angler and the majority of sessions caught half decent or bloody good fish. One of the best anglers on the SE forums.

Good luck to him and i hope he see's the light and comes back to the forums as i for one read his reports with both interest and envy! LOL:fish:

will so you made it to sea angler wow and as for arse kissing dont think so just wondering why one of kents best fisherman has gone.did you ever get the chance to fish with the man he tells it as it is and not just PM ME :whistling:whistling
you are possibly the biggest brown nose the world has ever known. why would i want to PM you, a so called angler who keeps a count of how many pouts he has caught. this is nothing to do with my connections with the magazine, ive just learnt since fishing with my connection that the over all quality of angler is very poor. youve prooved that, also how come the proper decent anglers arent on this forum. some of the people are so shocked about the crap that gets written on here so they dont look on here anymore, thats all of the decent anglers i know funnily enough.
now come on and stop your arse licking, greg is not a guru.no affence greg im trying to show this fool the error of his ways.
