And you get a fly rod, and you get a fly rod, and you get a fly rod

Oprah took her best gal pal Gayle fly fishing while on a camping vacation in Yosemite National Park.

(Via:TMZ)

Just think of the mayhem if Oprah were to declare on her show that fly fishing was one of her favorite things.

Judging by the taped over Simms logos the daytime TV audience will probably see Oprah casting a fly rod.

Oprah had her crew from The Oprah Winfrey Show documenting her trip and sources tell RadarOnline.com it should air later in October.

Oh god, please no celeb publicity of the Merced. It was in the news here that she was at our local REI buying crap for a camping trip. 3 to 4 million people hit that park every summer with almost every single one of them driving by the river. It's not stocked and is managed as a wild fishery so thankfully it's not easy. You can still find bait cartons around though.

I love that place. First fished there over 40 years ago. First river I ever fished. I will be there tomorrow. I'm sitting here with a picture of the Merced as the background photo on my computer. If she wanted to go fishing, cool, I would have been glad to take her. But not with a herd of people and those fucking cameras. Looks like she had a guide. Dipshit, anything for a buck. Has to make a living right. Like the fuckers who wanted to graze sheep, cut timber, or dam the valley among other things. Hope she got skunked, all that river needs is for her to catch a wild beauty for a national audience.

I feel sick

Why fly fishing as a sport if fucked.

October 16, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAnd now you know

Just like "A River Runs Through It", Oprah’s little glimpse into fly fishing will probably spur people to take up fly fishing as a trendy "new" way to show off their love of nature in stylish outdoor wear and retro- haberdashery. They’ll slosh into our favorite streams and rivers with expensive new rods and reels assaulting the water with chicken-neck sized flies tossed at distances of 4-5 feet and stand there like scare crows waiting for trout to respond.

are those Simms xtra-large/king waders?

October 16, 2010 | Unregistered Commentersunsabitch

No- those waders are XXXL to handle Oprah's ego (which is bigger than her ass). These photos truly reveal what a phony she is.

October 16, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterflyfishingpreacher

WTF!!! Thank god she is not in Alaska, but that may only a matter of time. This is worse than whirling disease!!!

October 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterFlyboy

Other people are fly-fishing? No this can't be, I thought I was the ONLY one?

October 17, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterDavid R

Well, at least all the cool kids aren't fly fishing elitists. Oh, wait. What?
