And seriously, "snake," any chance of your doing an occasional snipping

yeah, ya know- i could have done a little snipping there- i'll give ya that
one. still, it really wasn't that big a deal. just don't read the ****, if
you don't want to.

Aw, now, don't get me wrong - an occasional episode of The Saltine
Showcase, a smattering of Outhouse Forum, and a lil' ol' bit of Pettin'
Place IS amusing...heck, sometimes, it's as strange as being able to
watch Gomer and Ernest T. trying to make a choo-choo-booty call on Aunt
Bee, so do carry on...

but as far as your other beef goes- i have seen the same
performed here on roff in the past, without any objections raised by anyone
else.

Perhaps, but I doubt it, and I don't recall seeing it in several years
around here, at least as you tend to do it. And again, it's merely a
suggestion, but I'll bet you'll find it one you might wish to at least
consider - as always, YMMV...

you might also have taken notice that mark did tell me he'd let me
know through my e-mail. so, sorry- you lose on that one.

Oh, I don't lose on ANY of them, trust me...

btb- why do you hate the south?

The south what?

in the absence of a hatch, when fishing for trout in
lakes, does one approach fly selection differently than when fishing
streams?

Not knowing your lake and presuming you are shore fishing, my son "always"
has great luck using damsel fly and dragon fly nymphs indigenous to the
specific water body. His theory is that these nymphs are such a big meal
that they attract and invite strikes from the smarter medium and large sized
trout. Try strip fishing one of these bead head and/or weighted nymphs with
a sink tip floating line and see if you can get some takes.

Good luck!

Yes. Definitely. It's another world.

All right, see if you can get this. I have no idea what kind of lakes
you fish. There are as many different kinds of lakes as there are kinds
of streams. Your question is ridiculous. It's like asking, "In the
absence of a hatch, when fishing for trout in streams, does one
approach fly selection differently than when fishing
lakes?" Read a damn book or two.

Asking such a broad question (no pun intended) strikes me as an
attention-getting device. (Not there's anything wrong with that, up to a
point).

then all you had to say is something like," how one approaches fishing for
trout in lakes varies depending on the type of lake. it is a question
difficult to answer without having more specific information, but maybe
there are some resources out there with more information."

-and i have read one book so far on fly fishing- john gierach's fly fishing
small streams. sorry i couldn't read every resource all at once. and what
the hell was i thinking asking a fly fishing related question on a fly
fishing newsgroup? maybe i should stick to off topic stuff? oh, wait, that
didn't work either.......
