It seems that TU is having a severe spam problem. Obviously all coming from the same person and possibly the same IP address. If you need a volunteer to help deal with the work load problem then I am at your service.

IP addresses (and email addresses) are flagged when a person is banned for spamming. Many of these people are using a VPN to hide their IP address and location, so they can slip through again and continue to SPAM using a different email address.

SPAM is a never-ending battle.
The best thing that can be done is for any of you who see it to flag/report it immediately.
When you do that, we (the admin and moderators get notified.
Sometimes we get to it right away. Other times, if we are busy, it might take a while before it gets cleaned up.
TU is not a drifting ship. We are still here. But sometimes life happens and the cleanup isn't quite as speedy as we would all like it to be
Bear with us and we will get it taken care of as quickly as we can!

Where can I find the list of rules for the contest?

Here you go.

I'm not at all surprised either. It's the same thing every year. I expect it, but that doesn't make it any less of a nuisance.
-
Well, here we go again.
Some people are just plain not reading the rules, and are submitting multiple photos for a single bait.
Let me reiterate, ONLY ONE PHOTO ALLOWED PER ENTRY.
I will be deleting excess photos.

... I agree, thank you sir.

You're welcome

@CamiI moved your entry because it is not a hard bait. SInce you don't consider it to be a fly, I will move it to the wire baits category due to its jig-like appearance and design.

Good luck with the move. I grew up in Narragansett. You're going to save a ton of money just in taxes.
Thanks! I'm looking forward to the warmer weather, less government restrictions and lower costs for so many things. It'll be refreshing!

Sorry for the delay in replying. My wife and I are in the process of selling our home in RI and buying a house in NC, where we will be moving sometime in December. To say it's been hectic would be a bit of an understatement
Anyway, the badges came as part of a software update a while back. Members get "ranked" based on participation, post likes, etc.
I wish they would have used past member info to create a pro-rated rank, but they don't seem to have done that.
At this point, they it is what it is, so we just have to run with it and watch everyone's rank change over time
