Peter,
OK, you are right, I blew it. Just a smart ass remark that was off base.
Just recently came upon this board. Mea culpa.

You've obviously never fished for steelhead in Ontario or you'd
realize how ****ing stupid is that remark.. I only call 'em that when
they cast over my line while I'm fighting a fish. What would you have
called hiim? Or would you've just blown him away and saved on the
verbiage.

I don't give a **** what they fish with as long as they do it with a
bit of consideration for the rest of us and the resource. "Bubba Bait
Bucket" refers to a particluar attitude, not a social class, nor the
equipment used.

Well now, let's not get all carried away and ****. Petah made a strong
statement. You, ditto. He covered his ass pretty well. Big deal.

Had a similar experience on the same river. I went steelheading early last
season. An hours drive, got on the water at dawn. The water was high and
scary fast so I just waded out a little bit and fished the seam about five
feet from shore. After maybe ten minutes of dangling a streamer along this
seam, I hooked a twenty-one inch smallie. (That's a measured 21", BTW.) She
ran me a hundred feet downstream; luckily moving quickly on that river is
seldom a problem. Landed her in a backwater, just blown away at her size
and strength. Any other river, like the Thames, and I wuddna had a chance,
she'd have wrapped me up in forty downed trees. Got her back in the water,
she recovered nicely, then I walked back to the car and drove back home. No
way was I topping that, and besides by then the spawn slingers were in full
force, damn their black hearts.
