Good objective response. When I read DH's comments it made me feel there were now "intruders" on the board and that only original members were worthy of knowing "secret" spots. I don't post much but I've been around since near the beginning and I think everyone has been very helpful and cooperative with information. It's been a great benefit to me when I'm in the area. And I'm relieved that most responses were directed at being open with information, as the posts have nearly always been.
I will continue to share anything I think might be helpful and useful to make someone else's day on the water all the better. That's always been what I feel the spirit of this board is all about.

Dubble Haul,
I'm going to 'not cool' this post -- not in anger, not to flame or troll, just to say that I don't think it's in the spirit of the board. On the one hand, as far as I know, everybody here is committed to preserving every spot we fish, to the extent possible. Conservation is a big part of the flyfishing ethos, and a goal we're committed to as an FFF charter club.
On the other hand, the spot you're talking about has probably already been mentioned here before. The best thing about this board is that most folks are so generous with their knowledge -- if I had a year of Mondays (my day off), I probably couldn't fish all the 'secret spots' people have posted here. And if I happen to fish your spot -- which I don't know where it is -- and it ends up being awesome, I would definitely tell the board about it.
best,
Miles
