um...without regard to the possible freudian interpretation of such a

It's a waking dream, silly. Like the one about being able to sit in my front
yard with a .223, clear the neighborhood of stray dogs once and for all, and
have the cops stop by afterward with a case of Molson.


you "oughta" consider the alternative possibility that you might
simply discover/encourage a new fishing companion.

Yeah....I suppose the plan could go wrong. Someone has to come with another
idea. Wait...I have it! Bring my ex mother-in-law, who talks so much that
I've seen people try to hang themselves with their belts. Sic her on the
other fishermen.....

ah...the mum-in-law gambit. among the most feared moves in any game.
mine is 94, frail, with alzheimers...she still scares the hell outta me
and controls her daughter's life. mere fishermen have no chance against
such a force of nature...

MILs only conjure fear in SILs, so the gambit is fatally flawed. To the
outsider, MILs appear as rational, loving, caring human beings.

I can get used to those kinds of ploys. BTW, the way she makes 'em (9 oz
tumbler style) I'll start talking after one, and continue incoherently after
two.

What do you think is the most important aspect in fly fishing?

Your at a gold medal, medium sized stream, trout are 10" to 20"
and they're all over the place, but won't take anything. The area is well
fished, the fish are spooky but also used to fisherman being around so,
they
don't run and hide. No hatch, no fish rising.



Casting?- putting the fly exactly where it needs to be.
Fly selection?- match what they're eating!
Presentation?- drag free, correct depth.
Stealth?- don't let them know you there.

I realize all of these aspects are very important to a successful trip
but only pick one!.
I've only been fly fishing a few years but,
my guess would be presentation.
Just curious about what you guys think.

Thanks,
Dave Mc



Seems to me this is like saying you want to drive somewhere and asking which
is more important, gasoline, spark plugs, battery,...
