LOL good story wader-dad.

I don't know why I started this thread.
Winter has me so bummed out. I think I am losing my mind.
63 days till spring.
"It's not about the fish, it's about fishing for the fish. The fish is gravy."
Thanks for the nice comments. No, I do not guide anymore.
Tynan - That comment I made over on the main board was more of a surfcaster's eye view of the world.
When fishing or going to fish, I've had the most unwelcoming, rude encounters with people. You will also if you fish enough places. So what? You can't let your negative experiences with other people get to you. People are more transitory than furniture, they'll be gone or missing in short order.

Yup, I agree with ya, Joe...here today, gone later today...
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
Joe's writing skills are excellent and I truely miss his articles that had frequent the OTW magazine. Matter of fact I dropped my subscription for a year plus once he stopped writing the RI inside stories. He talked from a surfcasting perspective that made it interesting.
