From Dave Tackett -

I've been lucky in this forum and everyone has replied kindly or not at all, so I have a gift for all researchers or people in search of Bigfoot. It is a map I made. It is acurate, I got the outline from a satillite image and added information.

But first I must say, I am an honest person but I am also a verterin fisherman and even though I am honest, I will surely misslead anyone in want of my secret spots. For instance, I may descibe it perfectly, but I may throw in the wrong name of the river, so anyone trying to take advantage of me will go through a lot of trouble in the wrong place. The same goes for my siting, be carefull about specifics or I may throw you a curve ball. I hate the type of people that don't do their own work and want to scum off someone else for fishing spots etc.

Now, having said that, I offer an actual map of "THE" island. Now the Mississippi River has 10,000 islands and most look the same, so don't even try to pinpoint. If someone wants specifics, it will have to be in person, sorry.

Here is my gift to all people interested in finding out all they can on what possibilities to look for in seeing a Sasquach. Just by seeing this you will have a small experience on where a bigfoot stood for over 30 minutes, in plain site, walking back and forth and spending a few hours running and making a thrashing racket just previous:

Any chance of a direct download to the site?
The posted picture just shows up as the infamous small red "x" to me....

It was there earlier. I saw it!

I just get the little red x also. Maybe need to repost ?

Assuming the X marks the spot...

but would you please repost the map?

Pretty please?

Apparently he was afraid someone was going to find his favorite fishing spot and took back his "gift" to us.

I'm soory, I deleted a few image files off my site, I'll go put it back on now.

Very cool map fishead....

wow 30 mins in the open, he must a liked you....

Acually, it was 30 minutes minimum, and I really should say an hour, give or take 30 minutes. The 30 minutes relates to actual time it walked back and forth in the open. After that it mostly stayed behind bushes with its head showing. The whole contact was from the moment we arrived to the moment we left, which totalled around 5 hours. When we arrived we spooked some Deer we thought, the crashing through reeds lasted 2-3 hours. Then 30-60 minutes of silence and I realized the noise stopped and so I scanned the island to see if the Deer were watching me, I had that feeling.

After I pointed it out to my friends down the bank, it walked out into the open, then to another bush, then back to open, ect. After Evan and I watched it for 30 minutes, we went back to fishing, shrugging it off as a guy in a suit. But I think all three of us started to realize a guy in a suit just wasn't possible. Too tall to begin with. Too remote a spot ect.ect., then theres all that running and noise making, only an animal could do it.

Always willing to answer questions. I think I'm the only one in this forum thats will leave his name- Sincerely, Dave Tackett from Sterling Illinois.

Apparently you haven't been around the forum long enough to know who's who. That's a pretty bold statement you just made. Care to back it up?

Your right, I don't know who is who, but I'm learning...beware! Try leaving your name if you want to converse with me, I don't have time for people hiding in the shadows.

Then why are you here ? Most of the people that I do and have known on the forums have reasons for anonymity.What of it ? It makes me trust them no less.Or you anymore.Some of the biggest putzs in this field have thier names in full public view.It does not add to thier crediblity.Its exactly the kind of attitude that you display above that will more than likely proclude most folkes from giving you that which you seek.That arguments been done to death and the loser always turns out to be the one doing the crying about it.Something to think about....

Anonymity doesn't bother me either. Why should it? If the argument is good and the logic is sound, what's the problem?

OK, I know three now.

If you don't know who I am, how can I possibly be credible? No I have no films, tracks or deadfoots, but I do have a name. So are you all saying I shouldn't talk about my bigfoot siting without a dead bigfoot to back it up on this bigfoot board? That is strange.?.

I think there are others in here that DO want to hear my story and see my map. I doubt people want to see persons with the "proof only, otherwise shut up" attitude.

PS: I have two other witnesss for those with an open mind. Feel free to contact me by email to discuss it further if it bothers people so much in here. Otherwise, if ANYoNE, known or unknown, has any more questions, I am here.

No one should be taken serious about their BF siting if they can't back it up with their name. Dave, not kicked out yet, Tackett

dont leave thier name...did i get that right...dont leave thier name
first of all, that thing next to my post....THATS MY NAME....and i am by far not the only one here....oh ya and the other thing under my avitar.....THATS WHERE I LIVE.... but having said that i think that bringing up the question of anonymity and why you should be taken more seriously for having given your name..(if in fact it really is your name) is a rediculous argument. there are far greater implications for personal security on the internet than whether or not a fellow BF enthusiast is credible or not.....jesus man you had a nice post with interesting possibilities before lashing out at people for a silly reason. that sort of preimptive strike, if you will, can only be the product of a disturbed mind or something far more sinister lurking behind it. your logic and attitude should change lest you be associated with others who in the recent past have displayed the same type of unnecessary aggresiveness at the first opportunity.. OH YA, THATS A GREAT MAP THANKS FOR THAT ....regardless of what your name is

Is this conversation going on inside your head or what ? Just becuase you do not know someones name has no bearing on which others of us know who each other is ...How many reports do get submitted on the condidtion of anonymity ? All that means is the person recieving the report knows who submited it...That doesn't mean someone had to tell you or t doesn't mean anything.... Again where is this conversation taking place ?...As I recall it no one asked for your "story"..you gave it...I don't even recall anyone asking for proof.Personally I wasn't all that interested..since all it was is a story....Did you claim to have trackcasts ? Video ? Hair samples ? or miscellanious body part ? Not that I could tell....so what exactly is the big deal ? The only one its bothering seems to be you...No one else even seemed all that intersted until you started claiming anonymity as a bias for a reports believablity...like I said just because you don't know who someone is means nothing...All you're going to do by claiming people are untrue because of thier choice not to tell you who they are is alienate them...and have even less people willing to give you the info that you seek...Honestly ,I have no questions because I just really don't care..its too far away for me to go and check out and its nothing more than another sighting anyway....And someone with an apparent chip on thier shoulder,should be taken even less seriously..can you name for me any 20 witnessess out of the thousands who have submitted thier report to the BFRO ? Does that make thier encounter or experience any less valid than yours ? No..it just means that other people know who they are even if you don't...it does not however make what they have seen or done any less valid than anything you've presented...btw my names pretty much public knowledge on the forum to those who have been here awhile,among other places.Anyone with a phone book and and some patience could problaby find me pretty easily anyway with a little research,and a little less whinning on thier part....and no one to my knowledge has been kicked off of the forum for having an differing opinion...unless they pass the point of abuing other members about it...if you choose to leave on your own thats your choice... Agreed Dave. Anyone else remember seeing a similar pattern in recent years...

I posted a gift, not a bomb. It was a lot of work and I made it mostly for the people in here, you all.

But my first reply was, "you obviously don't know us in here! You got proof to back it up?"

Well if that wasn't confrontational I don't know what is. I read previous posts and I know your game, you kicked the wrong dog.

I'm not a people person, thats why I spent most of my life outdoors, and thats why I saw a BF.

I have decided to leave since there are so many of you attacking me, and its your loss. Perhaps you all can research why so many people are leaving with my gift thread here.

Well there you have it, then. Personally, I don't see much of an attack going on, but that's your call I guess.

Fine, like I said its your choice to leave...but just to set the record straight..[QUOTE=fishhead]But my first reply was, "you obviously don't know us in here! You got proof to back it up?"

Well if that wasn't confrontational I don't know what is. I read previous posts and I know your game, you kicked the wrong dog.
[QUOTE] what was really said. [QUOTE=JayleeD]Apparently you haven't been around the forum long enough to know who's who. That's a pretty bold statement you just made. Care to back it up? [/QUOTE] What it was in response to.[QUOTE=fishhead]Always willing to answer questions.

[/QUOTE] the actual first reply by NW was that the map wasnt uploading...and it was prety non confrontational....

well if your gone now you wont see this fishhead but ill post it anyhow.

i read back through the whole thread TWICE and it was you who started with the accusatorial tone with the nobody leaves thier name so you wont talk to them about your sighting. no body who is a valued member here has ever attacked anyone for anything without first being attacked first and the strange thing is, you lashed out with no reason, no valididty to you anger what so ever. its as if you created the whole drama in your mind just to cause friction, so if your leaving, good riddance but if you would like to continue to post, sans the attitude, i would love to read more about your encounter
David Mcclain......im quite sure that is my name

This sentence set my teeth on edge because of the condesending way you claim to make us a "gift" of your map. While at the same time you said.....



So your "gift" to us isn't much of a gift if you intentionally withhold evidence and/or location, right? What's the point? Did you feel you have something that the rest of us don't? Think again.



Once again I must ask you, what was the point of gifting us with your supposed map and then saying "don't even try to pinpoint?'. Who cares where it is? Frankly, I took the entire report with a grain of salt because I found quite a bit of it very questionable.





Well, thank you so much for giving me such a neato small experience. :rolleyes:
WTF? Question for you, did you see the animal spend a few hours running and making a thrashing racket just previous? Didn't think so.

You just seem to be one more who likes to take posts and twist them to say what you would like them to say. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.

Note to Self Self don't piss this gal off

A gift? Why would it be a gift?

Didn't you see the pretty bow and wrapping ?

LOL Jim
A "gift" to this field would be conclusive proof of evidence that this creature
is just that a "creature" not a reported sighting and half baked map of an unknown location with things (for people who want to steal)included to mis-inform.
A gift is pleasant not heresay.Facts.Discoveries.Information straight up.

Attitude aside There was little to this "gift" to begin with.

JMHO

Robert

If fishead had been worth a damn at doing a little searching, he'd have found that many of us have given our names in the past. Not that it makes a bit of difference in the world.



Duhhhhh...really??? I'd have never known. :rolleyes:

I feel a group hug coming on!! teeheehee!

Maybe assclown would be a better choice of vocation then.

Wow.

WTH happened to fishead? His meds run out?

and names? Oh heck all the Maryites use their "real" names and I wouldnt believe them if they told me the sky was blue.

ok i'm new at this but gave it a try.i used special digital enhancing software only available to federal agencys and people with computers.
what i did was zoomed in and was able to locate the source of the thrashings.

next. after converting to gray scale i noticed a code. by rotating the image iwas able to make sence out of it. it seems all the red dot's may have been put there to waste valuable fishing time by causeing someone to cast towards the center of the island instead of casting towards the water.

this my friends is my gift to you!

Is fishead still around? Seems I have seen his posts in other threads since his "goodbye".

Anyway, I have a question for him. It seems that using his name would, what, allow us to believe him? Didn't he start by telling us he was a liar?

Another curiousity, I noticed that 89 posts ago, when he first signed up, he said he didn't have a bf encounter. What happened, fishead, did you just have a 'blocked memory' experience?

Well, I guess I had better start signing my posts by my given name, which I already have a tendancy to do when I am responding in a personal manner, but for future reference, fishead, I am Mort, short for Mortimer Snerd. and I am a 'wild and crazy guy'.

uhm, hold on there.

i guess th guy is gone.

but

i just scrolled All his posts and his very first post(unless i screwed up and had th wrong page or something) he tells of encounter 25 year ago.

at some point(not sure of first, memory bout gone on pain and drugs)
he mentions th utah guy, who we KNOW is a total assclown.

id say bad for fishead, bad choice of who to talk to, BUT, that cant be held against fishead.

another post he mentions a yahoo group who ridiculed him.

he seemed, all this while, to DESPERATELY want to talk about the encounter.

as i scrolled through i noticed a couple of laments to the gods on that very subject. why is no one takin him serious?

i must admit, and i guess this is a really bad thing, that i dont much pay attention anymore to th "newbie" stuff as a LOT of em are just total assclowns.

but i think fishead meant no harm really at first.

this last one, i dont know why he does th "ill lie to you thing", but yeah, thats a sure thing to get ya attacked here.

if ya scroll his posts he keeps on and on about th sighting, working at it and worrying at it.

whether th guy had an actual enocunter i dont know.

no one knows but him and th guys that were with him.

thats th onus ANYONE with a sightings carries.

believability.

i come here and i tell ya i have had TWO encounters. i make it plain i dont know what th hell it was other than a light colored bipedal figure. thats it. thats all i tell cause that ALL I know.

i really dont much care WHO believes me. im here to talk to folks about possibilities and about field techniques.

callin th man a liar , as th last post does...is just wrong.

people, WORK on your posting skills, THINK about what your typing in, RESEARCH your replies.

it would make th forum a MUCH nicer place.

Whoa, Shaman...

I didn't call the man a liar. He called himself a liar. I just reported what he wrote. I did my research. Maybe his ranting was because he was born in 1922, or that is what his profile said. That would make him about 81 years old. He said he wasn't good with people and I would agree.

So don't finger point at me. I reported what I saw, I wasn't rude and life must go on.

ok..

the official crow eating hour is begun.

misfit,

know right off th bat here that the last part of my rant was NOT specifically addressed at you. i should NOT have even included that in that post. it should have been on its own thread OR simply NOT said.

so i humbly beg your pardon for that.

and with this next i prove the lie to my own words of begging people to research.

i went and looked at fisheads profile and it DOES say no encounter.

so you were absolutly right on that and i was wrong.

again, i humbly beg your pardon.

in fact, this has been an object lesson to me
i will not post out in th regular parts of th forum again untill i have no pain and am completely off th pain meds.

i will confine my posts to only my little "spiritual refrains" thread.

a good day to you sir.

However, I think Shaman makes some good points...

Headline: Shaman welcomes the new blood!!

For the assclowns.

Ok! Ok!
Let's put an end to this before it gets out of hand...huh?

Actually I thought his map was cool. It was nice of him to do.


ok, done now

I'm not back, I am just looking to see what everyone said. Thanks for any support, and I understand that anything at all is sticking your neck out, and can be dangerous.

I am 49 and not on meds that affect my mind, that is just the way it thinks. I changed my siting to no because I don't care anymore, in here anyway.

I did not lose control because my story was questioned; I have been told by a few people that my bigfoot art is harmfull and counter productive. This is a great insult and I was hurt by it. I have night sky art and scientists do not tell me I am doing harm to their subject of cosmology, they in fact offer pictures for me to use and they visit my site often.

I am not on a desperate course trying to convince anyone of anything, I repeated my report to offer answers to questions and I think my story is important enough to get out there before my interest fades, and there are some great people in here I have made friends with that have a genuin interest in Bigfoot.

Since my falling out in here, I have recieved 37 viruses and they're still coming. I don't know where they are coming from, and it may be coiincidental, but non the less, be carefull people and remember this list I made. I probably won't be back, but thanks to everyone that has been friendly to me, and thanks bipto for letting me become a member and return now, I think you are a decent guy after I read eveything. To the others that insulted me, I am done with you.

Don't forget to visit my site and see the pictures and fishing cartoons all you nice people! (nice people only). Fishead

I see that you left again already, but you'll be back, so..................

Don't you ever pick up a fricken newspaper?
Here; Thread on current virus

Take Shaman's suggestion about thinking about what you say before you post and maybe someone will take you seriuosly.
Baseless acusations and vieled inferences will not indear you to anyone.


Here? I doubt it...... The only one I've seen insulting artwork here is you. :assclown smilie: Did that work?
