Thanks Silver! I enjoyed the read. Myself, like many others ironically follow most of those recomendations because they are nothing new and based on good old common sense. One of the joys of this sport for me is the whole ritual of "gearing-up"!

Same as App, I enjoyed the irony. Gotta find humour in what one's passion is, otherwise it may become joyless! I went through the article , checking things off as I went. Oh boy, I missed not a trick. One of the neat parts of flyfishing is suiting and rigging up, riverside, with a buddy. I remember doing it beside the Clinch River in Tenn., with a new friend (Appalachian Angler) , and enjoying the conversation about gear and such that IS a large part of what we do as flyfishers. I did the same thing last night,with another new friend , on my home river . We may appear silly at times, but , it's all in good fun. Personally, I like to have good stuff that works well, makes me safe and comftorable, and helps me fish to the best of my abilities. It also helps you weed out the true addicts from the chaff.:D

The above was written for DUDES!
You have to look deeply tanned and grizzled, have been living in the same tan waders and grey brown jacket daily for 10 years,
wear a black tie and never make eye contact. Above all!! you must cast to absolute perfection.
