Maybe a little bit of all. 63 days last year (not near enough). Spent a lot of time discuss'n & cuss'n things at Larry's shop with larry, JonhT, Don, and all the sales reps but never went away empty handed. I miss it.

Thought this was the best line from the list.
" Has a separate VISA card just for fly fishing that’s billed to a private P.O. Box." Have a couple of buddies that might concider this a great idea

Thanks Jon, funny stuff. It probably could have been even longer with more types.

That was funny!

Claims that the “Red Carey” was his original fly. Smells like most of the neck hackle. Always asks to use the bathroom and stays for exactly 20 minutes.


I bet Dean has some funny descriptions too.

Boy did they Nail that on the head, 100% correct about some of Our Customers.. Fortunately they are the Minority... But can be annoying at times....

Hmmm...parts of most of them apply. Over 100 days last year, but not off to a great start yet this year. It seems like I know someone that fits every model.

Best line(IMHO): "...has a buddy who also wants to get into this "sh#t".

Maybe it's a generational thing. Great line.

Dude, very humorous post. Funny sh#t. And I mean that in the best way. It's a good 'sh#t."

I have a credit card like that. Only it's not so secret, which makes for the occasional sh#tstorm. Matter of fact, I'm about to start one right now, sorta. You see, I need hackle. And, dammit, I'm gonna get some. Good thing she's workng today.

Yeah.

Pray for me.

OH YEAH! I KNOW THE TYPE!

I think that would be me, Most of you who have met me would probably agree!

Cept not so young, and don't fish as often!

nice that we can laugh at ourselves! Addiction and all.....

Thanks Jon, nice online mag too, did anyone click on the "* Creek" link?

Funny depiction, Jon. I fit many of the descriptions, although I rarely enter a flyshop unless it is with someone else wanting to see if David is home. Generally, he's out on the river.

I do have a credit card registered to Western Flyfishers, and it is billed to a PO Box, but then no mail comes to our home addresses where I live. All has to be picked up at the Post Office.

Haven't the faintest idea how many days a year I get out, as I don't count them. More than 40, less than 300, I'd guess.

I'm sure Dean, Bernard, Ken and others working the flyshops have seen them all.

hm... i'd be the WWW Poacher

always poaching info from the willing, and claiming there honey holes as my ol' stomping grounds. Talks the talk about the know hows and the equipment but never casted more than a dozen rods. Always the first to claim shotgun on a trip that was even invited on. Always the first to thread jack a post if the opportunity presents its self. Lastly always claiming he has river ethics, but really only the ones he created in his own mind.
annual fishing days: 365 (as he counts reading fishing posts as trips he's been on)


ha!
