I have a list of additions I want to make to NCangler.com in the coming months/years. I wish I had more free time to work on making them a reality sooner, but I only have a few nights and some weekends to do it. I'm adding my list of things below. These are not in priority order but are just areas I would like to build on.
I'd love for you folks to help me brainstorm what can yet be added or improved upon. My goal it to make this the most useful, user-friendly, everything-you-ever-wanted-to-know-about-fishing-in-NC, website on the Internet. So welcome to the think tank. No ideas are too crazy or far-fetched. What would you like to see and how would you implement it?
- Develop a comprehensive fishing related "Weather Station" for the site.
- Build a database of key Lat/Long links for the "Bite-Times" solar lunar link.
- Build a comprehensive "Tide Table" link.
- Develop a "FishBlog" system and invite key salt/fresh/fly-fishing anglers/guides to contribute weekly 'columns' that will be published on our site.
- Populate the "Fly Ties" section with fly tying samples and instructions/how-to's.
- Create a "Bait & Rigs" section (like Fly Ties) with instruction/how-to's on bait and rigs to use with particular species.
- Populate the "Reviews" section with more fishing and boating products for folks to write reviews about.
- Find more in-depth fishing articles on various topics to add to our database.
- Add more information to the "Fish Facts" database.
- Add lots of great products to our eStore and offer more discounts to Captains Club Members that support the development of the site.
- Create annual, year-long NCangler.com Saltwater and Freshwater fishing tournaments to promote fellowship among our membership and awareness regarding conservation of our natural resouces. The tournaments would also promote fishing among our youth and proceeds would help support charitable causes in our state.
Wow! I'm tired and excited at the same time. Okay if I can come up with that I'm sure you guys can add even more. Please feel free to expand on any of these ideas or add your own. Depending on the response I may add a poll to prioritize what we do to keep things moving. Thanks in advance for your input!
