been fishing to long
1. a day on the water is more important than the fish caught
2. no longer need the latest rod,line etc
3. have fly s that are older than most people i see fishing
4. most of my old fishing buds have moved on
5. the good old days are always better than today
6). The older I get, the more I realize there is more to learn.[ Flats Dude ]

Flyrodder1,
The only one I disagree with is #5. What I have learned on "each" of the good old days has made today even better.
Good fishin' to you!

Hi Folks,
Being about three weeks from my 60th
birthday, every fishing trip I make is
listed in the profits column in the ledger
of life.*G* Warm regards, Jim

Here's one Jeff Foxworthy might have come up with.....
"If you learned (like myself) to fly-cast with your Dad's fairly new BAMBOO rod...you might be an Old Fly-Fisher."

Gigmaster,good one, my dad never let me use his,had a old steel fly rod as 1 st rod.then glass was the rage. bamboo rods was put out to pasture and us kids fished them. lol ...
