While making our sweep on vacation recently one of the major attractions was my wife's class reunion. It was held outside and I was getting rather bored since there was no one there I knew. I figured it was her day so I just stayed out of her hair and let her have her time with her friends. While walking around the park I saw a small river running through the back side of the place. I had my fly rod in the car and I was seeing a few fish so I thought what the heck.
Now we had fished Tenn. already and had a license there but didn't plan on fishing in WV so I hadn't purchased a license. what I did was to just take a fly and cut the hook off of it. I figured it there's no hook you can't be fishing. I was only looking to see what the fish's reaction would be to the fly. The wife said I was fishing, I said I wasn't. We never did find out what the game warden would have thought about it. he never showed up.
So what was I doing? Fishing or practice casting?
