Well said Erick, you pretty much summed up my feelings too.
Without doubt it's a double edged sword, but one which we all must battle with.
I personally no longer post specific spots, but I will always help anyone with any questions they have regarding an area, or techniques.
I have seen my own and friends of mine spots become highly (or at least a lot more) pressured, due to revealing them on the site. The worst case example i know of, was a Friend of mine who took someone from the site to his, no miss Redfish spot. That guy returned every week, usually on more than one occasion, and often with with his wife and took a slot fish just about every time out there. In two years that spot was no longer anywhere near its prime. Of course this guys was not the only person fishing there, but he certainly made a large impact on the population.
Just doing the simple math, 2 trips a week, taking two fish, thats 200+ fish a year gone from that relatively small local population.
That's a lot of hurt on a small area, and the fishing there suffered dramatically. The real pisser, is that the friend of mine who found the place originally is all Catch and Release!
So there are dangers to revealing all, but like many have said before there are no "secret spots" in reality, just less pressured ones
