odd fly fishing question
#41
Well, this thread got snarky in a hurry. Someone doesn't like green jello, I suppose...


RE" and isn't nearly as fun to use as my mid-60's Perrine automatic reel"

OK, now That is something impressive. My father tried to teach me how to use an automatic reel when I was a kid and I never could really get the hang of using the blasted thing. Still have nightmares about it. That shows some skill, even if you didn't know what sinking line was. Wink

TBD is not an elitist. He is willing to share his Betos burritos with anyone. No elitist would do that.

Nope, not at all. She's more than capable, and does so whenever she feels the need. I think it's interesting, however, that you can somehow find negativity in someone coming to the aid of a friend who has been maligned in a public forum.

[quote NICH]And yes I read the thread. I am though, wondering how your reading comprehension is? [/quote]

The guy who "read the thread" and wonders about my "reading comprehension" doesn't realize that I wasn't talking to him or even about him. I'm not quite sure how to take this, but there you have it.

Quote:There again another cheery open armed fly fisher TroutBumDave. I bet there are converts waiting to fish with you.

Dammit, you caught me. It's true, I'm a dick.


I will say this though, the part where you said:

Quote:If you knew anything about me you'd [re]consider calling this life long passionate angler "uneducated". You can call me a lot of things like "stubborn and opinionated" and sometimes "rude and blunt" but considering you've fly fished for so long and didn't even "know what a sinking line is" maybe you need to reconsider you own mud slinging bud!?!

Since it's clear that reading comprehension isn't your thing, and judging by your quote here, you're not really aware of the fact that you're doing the exact same thing you're accusing these "elitists" of doing, (here's a hint, if you actually have to resort to "DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?!" and lists of your accomplishments to justify calling someone an elitist or as ammo to put someone down...), I'm just going to leave this topic alone. I have enjoyed this thread way more than I probably should have.

Dude, if you're ever chasing carp in a tube or 'toon, an auto-reel is the way to go. I hate having 60 feet of line piled up around me when Mr. Carp decides to make a mad run or charge straight at me. Being able to pick up all that slack in a second or two without letting up on the pressure of the rod is a lifesaver, imo.

Didn't you get the memo? I've changed. All your burrito are belong to me.

[quote Fin_Addict]Was trying pay you and FG a compliment but it seems you Utards are incapable of taking one. You people are some of the most ungrateful I've ever met in my life. This state has got to rank in top as one of the worst I've ever lived in. Only been here about a half a year but already looking forward to leaving. #2 on worst places ever lived. Good riddance to this waste of space called "Utah"[/quote]

I can take a compliment,,,try me[sly]

Oh yikes you got me I have some typos. Weren't my first and won't be my last. I must truly be uneducated. I better hand my head in shame and take my ball and go home.

The fact that you are picking a fight with me because I QUOTED your friend who said "Anyone can chuck bait out and catch a fish" is laughable. I'm glad you were "enjoying this more than should'' because to me it was just another conversation that is already in the rearview mirror with some random butt hurt dude on the interwebs.

Wow. Who said anything about typos?

I think someone is about due for a chromosome audit.

RE "Didn't you get the memo? I've changed. All your burrito are belong to me."

The only way you are getting my Betos burritos is from my cold dead hands with type 6 full sink wrapped around my neck, you U#### elitist you.
