Bad fish. Not like going down to the pond and chasing bluegills and tommycocks. This shark, swallow you whole. No shakin', no tenderizin', down you go

Out for a couple of days trying my hand at fly fishing.

If I catch a steelhead I'll post a picture. If I don't catch a steelhead I'll post a picture of somebody else's steelhead and say it was mine. It's not like you guys would know the difference anyway.

  1. Now we'll know. Don't get killed by any toxic river sludge. Or Republicans hunting penned-up quail.

  4. Fishing for flies seems like it would be very difficult. How do you keep the rotten meat up in the air?

  5. "...rying my hand at fly fishing."

  8. Good luck. I can never get my flies to fish. They have the attention span of a gnat.

  10. randal-

    I do look like a big quail, not that you mention it.

    swine-

    beer and fishing is like chocolate and peanut butter. Gotta have 'em both.

    zibbs-

    You had me. I thought there was a real shark here.

    don-

    Ha and ick!

    mwb-

    He was arrested for fishing with a wide stance.

    bradda-

    Unfortunately they frown on using dynamite. I also found out there none too fond of you shooting a .45 randomly into the water screaming "die fish, die!"

    Bunch of wildlife nazis.

    enigma-

    Unfortunately the best pics I got weren't of fish but the wild doe and her two fawns that wandered through our campsite one day. Sooo cute.

    spirula-

    Nice turn of phrase.

    When I fish with flies my buddy Renfield eats all the bait.

    Pop-

    That comment was perfect anyways!
