I hope I'm not too off-topic. How do you search this site within posts or just posts titles,or just postings by specific posters? The google engine directed at troutnut.com recovers everything on the site.

Thanks,

There isn't a specific search for the forum, I'm afraid. To look for postings by specific posters, though, you can click the poster's name and see a chronological list of his/her (OK, who am I kidding, his) most recent posts.

Thanks folks. I brought up the search question because I didn't want to start a topic that has been brought up before. But looking through the google results for this site, it does seem to return the hits I want, with my keywords highlighted.

And thanks for the tip on clicking the poster's name to see their postings.
