.... fishing was a small sport enjoyed by a few people and before some asshole douche bags like moldy scum shitheads and that shithead movie about a bunch of montana drunks, and the cute one gets beat to death, tried to turn it into a business for a bunch of asshole yuppies who couldn't catch a fish with dynamite, but have enough money to try to look like the advertisements in the fishing magazines.
I'm just glad I'm old enough to have been around for the golden years and you guy will be left with shit... So go fuck you.
So that big Sears label and "Ted Williams" model Shakespeare stuff was not an effort to sell stuff? K.
Wow, If you knew Mr Williams, you might think that comment #1 was directly from his grave to our eyes.
go drink a gallon of prune juice you jaded crusty old bastard.
Wow. Well, I think I can speak for most of us by saying I hope the guy above me is old enough to die soon.
Yea!
What he said!!
And don't forget the retired jocks and newspaper hacks who made a pretty dime pimping it from Islamorada and New Brunswick the Catskills to the Kispiox.
Bastards, every last one of them.
I hope you all slip and fall in the puke they left on the kitchen floor.
Ahh,
Today we have better rods, more fishable water and better conservation. Not to mention Pin-up Fridays!!! Having been an avid fly guy since the mid-70's I think I qualify to comment on the matter.
