Hey Fly, you really sold me on your argument. I definitely would not have seen the light, except that you accentuated your post with "gay." Now I completely understand. Thanks for helping me realize true awfulness when I see it.
Suck it fly. I'm sick of you guys who think you're traditionalist purists. BS you're not traditional. You're just a fisherman who only has a one set mind and you don't catch that many fish for that reason. I like learning different ways to fish and own and try to make a lot of different rods and reels. So go preach your bs and I'll catch more fish. While your swinging away scaring all the fish away.
@cseverin&2 Dude at least when we are swinging, we arent throwing two pounds of weight. THAT spooks fish. Get up on a cliff and watch a guy swing flies...notice how many fish are interested. Screw off ya wank!
Blah blah blah. Didn't like the video that much either. Still think most of you guys are idiots that think you can just catch fish one way and that's it. Any other way and it's bad or immoral or whatever the hell else you retards think. I was brought up to treat other fellow fishermen with respect as long as they are abiding the written rules and the unwritten of the river. I can tell most of you were not however and that's to bad.
Song= lame. I don't have a problem with float fishing per se, but isn't this a fly fishing blog? This shit should be up on ifish. To those of you that are all fired up about someone beaching a fish: a) you obviously haven't done much steelhead fishing and b) it was a fucking planter, born to die, and die it should.
I like the drag him behind the bumper comment. Ya beach that bitch and put a thong on that centerpinner, you got your waders all the way up but only into your ankles in water (fag). There was so much more shore you could have taken that fish up on. Why didn't you? It was dead already. I just hope it wasn't a wild fish and that you at least harvested it and not let it float off belly up.
Two pounds of lead? 1 Pound = 453.59237 Grams, so I doubt I'm chucking over 900gm of lead, more like 4.5gm. I've seen much more weight on the end of a chuck and fuck purist's rod that prefers to rape fish off gravel. But that's OK, you're in love with the romance of fly fishing just so you can tell your cubicle butt buddies about all the fly fishing you've been doing, that one afternoon over the last month. High stick that indicator knowing you are just another bobber fisherman, only you are picking the least effective way of presenting that nymph. Froth that water until it bubbles with your sweet spey casts over holding water. Repeated whipping of the surface water doesn't scare fish. Because it's not about how many fish you catch, it's about the experience, right? That's what the standard response is. So stand over that redd and catch the same fish 10 times, 6 of those foul hooks, and tell me the fishing is great.
cseverin&2, you're the fucking retard bro. Of course there is more than one way to catch a fish, including pinning and netting. It's just not sporty or right. Shove your pin rod you bait hucking poacher.
Ok fly, you really read that right didn't you? Call me a poacher. HAHAHA. That's great. Way off on that one. That's ok tho. I'm glad I struck a chord back. You must know I hold some truth then. Anytime you're in northern Wis. look me up dick.
I want to know where in the northern hemisphere with steelhead the foliage looks like that last Wednesday.
Anyone arguing about fishing styles needs to grow up. You haven't caught enough fish and aged enough years to not give a rats ass.....yet. Trust me you will be there, just sit back and enjoy fishing however you do it.

nicely done solo video. solid video work while fishing as well.
But, why does everybody have to use that f-ing song? the XX "Intro" is to fly fishing videos as Vampire Weekend "Holiday" is to commercials.
Was that supposed to be cool?
Lame. Pinners are sinners. Puke.
Why not just use nets to catch em?
Gay.
Centerpinning is weak shit. Lame post man.

Pinhead = needle dick

The song may be overused but I am definitely not a fan of the long fight and dead fish at the end. Lame is right.
Ditto on the song, I had to turn the volume off to watch it.
That's two minutes of my life I'll never get back...
don't see the point of dragging the fish on the rocks...waders are on for a reason, use em
i didnt realize what centerpinning is. I retract anything postive i said about the video. f-ing boo.
Yeah drag that fish all over the rocks...fucker id like to tow you behind a car.

You wonder why the fly fishing community gets the tag of snob, elitist and narrow minded loser. Who the fuck cares? He's a fishermen.
right on the mark cseverin&2
Pinning is stealthy. That's the beauty of it..... Its cool though while you swinging and "crushing fish" my bobber will be dropping all day long
I would hate to be fishing downstream from that guy. I believe his drift was 200 yds long .
