Hi Willi,
Maybe it's the girls in the commercials.
Some pretty good taste there IMHO.

I gotta agree with Ken on this one. (Although it is kind of surreal to
hear Mr. Elite to rant about other people being snobs)


People who are very into something form "elitist" opinions as to what is
good or bad and these opinions generally differ widely from what the
average Joe thinks. This is true of lots of things - literature, movies,
music, fly rods, beer, wine, food, etc. etc. etc. There is no science
for ranking the "best" or "worst" or "good" or "bad" in any of these
things. Different tastes for different people.

Well, now that you know my life story. Get Ready! Grease Your Lines! And,
Fish!!!

There you go. Now you've gone and done it. "Grease your lines!?" What are
you, some kind of fly fishing Luddite? Modern lines do best without the
grease, thank you very much. The only grease on your line should come from
eating pasties whilst fishing. (not those kinda pasties, Asadi) Begone with
you. PLONK!

Luddite?!?...Smile...Sorry, figure of speach. Do wash my lines regularly
with mild dish soap. Purchased some line cleaner the other day I am going to
try - "Climax Slick + Fly Line Cleaner" (no jokes please). Up untill a
couple of years ago I used a very thin coat of muslin which worked very well
to keep them floating. Ran out. Wish I had more. Maybe this new stuff will
work better. Any experience with Slick + or others?

Luddite...
But, I have refurbished and revitalized some old equipment for "Retro"
fishing. Also, Favorite Flies & Their Histories by Mary Orvis Marbury has
stimulated my interest in some old classic fly patterns. These patterns will
soon take flight at the end of a gut leader if I can find some. (I will
keep my other rods & reels handy though)

Well Ken,
Just got back from a beer run. 1-6Pak, 16 oz. Old Milwaukee - $3.79
Great Stuff.
Danl does like his good beer and I've sipped a few with him.
Great guy, excellent fisher, good drinking partner.
Guy


Well thankee, Guy. I look forward to tipping a few with you in Montana,
interspersed between beating the water to a froth. I do believe that I am
bunking in the cabin next door to you and Gal at The Sliders Inn.

But just look at what you've done to a perfectly good ****ing contest! Oh
well. Who knows, there might be another one some day here on ROFF.

Danl

BTW, I think that Snoop is another Old Milwaukee drinker. It suppose that it
ain't killed him yet, but I haven't heard from him in a while.

I don't know if I should admit to this, but I sure do like to ad a couple
oz. of V-8 or tomato juice to my beer. Makes all beer taste healthy and I
can claim I've had my vegetable intake for the day.



i know you are a newbie, and i don't want to seem surly, but you have no
idea how unequipped you are for a contest with these crazy mother****ers.

That's one way to look at it. I guess "fool", "little peepee", "stupid",
"idiot", etc. etc. pack a wallop for some people. For me it just brings
back memories of grade school playground fights.


The way I look at it is that it's "these crazy mother****ers" who are
"unequipped" in dealing with a nice "guy" who had a good time with some
of us at the Juan.


It's gotten old.

Snoop has slimmed down and has gotten into good shape. He's done a bunch
of high altitude backpacking. His eyes are still without lubricant but
recently he reported some improvement.
