You'd better stay away from the tweed and stick to dildos,
thongs and bikinis if you want to keep these old lechers
interested in your tyro escapades.

As you know, Ken, I loathe you, but I have to admit that's pretty good.

I'll tell you what, snakefiddler: Catching fish is pretty easy when you
will stoop to any damn method -- worms, power bait, minnows, roe sacks,
spinners, dynamite, bleach, whatever it takes. Flyfishing is altogether
different. After you've put in your dues, which takes years, you'll
sometimes outfish the lower classes and always have more fun and
satisfaction in the doing. Until you understand that, you are not a
flyfisherwoman. Tell your poaching, meat fishing, bait slinging
coworkers to go **** themselves. :-)

of this i have no doubt.



After you've put in your dues, which takes years,

glad i got a lot of em ahead

having already experienced the challenge of the basics, i can understand why
you would make that statement- and i look forward to the day that i can
boast competency, much less great skill. meanwhile i will take my
satisfaction in the learning process, the occasional catch, and the
wonderful experiences surrounding the activity.



you are not a
flyfisherwoman.


ah, have no doubt, r.w.- i'm on my way


Tell your poaching, meat fishing, bait slinging
