doesn´t know much about flyfishing either.

Ah, Connor, you're talking out of your ass again. You neither know me
very well, know where I fish, or how successful I am. I need not
defend my fishing prowess on this forum. Folks that do not like me
(rw for example) will tell you I am a good fisherman.

I could flood this place with TRs with pictures of the fish I have
taken. And, yes, before you call me on it, I have used guides on 7 of
100 days a year I fish. But, even with a guide, you need to know how
to read the water, knots, cast, play the fish, and release it
relatively unharmed. On my only guided trip this year, the guide
wanted me to nymph as we floated down a Maine river. I wanted to end
my 2007 season by catching fish on the surface. My friend nymphed and
was successful following the guide' advice. I too was successful
without him, however I did appreciate his rowing the raft. It was a
good year for learning and teaching. d;o)
