That is disturbing, not funny. It would have been funny if it was a
parody, but these people actually do this???

First time I ever caught something other than a fish on a flyrod.


One of the hazards of fishing the Hex hatch here in the
midwest is that Hexagenia limbata come out at about the
same time of the evening as bats.

Yoo don't want to start your forward cast with a bat on
the end of your fly line. Damn near broke my arm, or seemed
like it anyway. One more good argument for barbless hooks.


****, I should have read through the thread... I coulda just posted
"me too." LoL

I find that bats often hit the knots in the leader.

Having read the whole site, I can hardly help but believe that someone's
tongue was more or less firmly embedded in his cheek.

which is not to say that a certain would be subliminal message might not be
present. :)

Well, its not ALL bad...this is from the second website:

"One day, the first grade teacher was reading the story of the Three
Little Pigs to her class. She came to the part of the story where the
first pig was trying to accumulate the building materials for his home.
She read. "...And the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full
of straw and said, 'Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to
build my house?'" The teacher paused then and asked the class, "And
what do you think that man said?" One little boy raised his hand and
said, "I think he said...'Holy ****! A talking pig!"

The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 minutes.

Love those grade school jokes.
Teacher asked during a history session: "Who said; Ask NOT what the country
can do for you, ask what YOU can do for your country? Anyone?, Class,
anyone?" Suddenly a little quiet Japanese boy in back of the room stands
up and shyly says; "John Fitzgerald Kennedy, January 20, 1961." The teacher
comments; "Toshi is right, and I can't believe it took a little quiet boy
from Japan, who is not even a citizen of the US to come up with the right
answer!" All of a sudden a voice shouts out from the class; "WELL F _ _ K
the JAPANESE!!! The teacher embarrassed by the comment asked: "Who said
that? Class, who said that?" A little girl stand up and says; "Douglas
MacArthur, December 7, 1941.

And this coming from someone with the last name 'Nagashima' :-)

OK, here's one for you.

A Japanese guy goes in to a money changer in NYC and changes some Yen
into dollars. The next day, he goes back and changes some more, but
gets a slightly worse rate. He asks the moneychanger why he got fewer
dollars for his yen than he did the day before. The moneychanger says
"Fluctuations, its just how it is." The Japanese guys walks to the
door, turns around, and yells "Yeah, well FLUCK YOU AMELICANS, TOO!!"

Close enough.
I took those Japanese roommates camping for their first time in their lives.
We didn't bring any firewood, so I made a list for one of the guys to hike
down to the local store about two miles down to pick up some "supplies",
while the other roommate and I setup camp. Well two hours goes by and no
roommate with the supplies. I start to worry when four hours goes by, no
roommate and no supplies. Five hours goes by and I start down the road to
go find my missing Japanese roommate. I get about 1/2 a mile down the road
and the darn Japanese guy jumps out of the bushes and yells; "SUPPLIES!!!"
