Ralph; thankyou for your thoughtful article. It is like looking into a mirror and seeing myself.

I'm in my seventies now and have been branded as an Elitist often during my fishing life, and, mostly by people who endow our trout and other species of animals Etc; with Human Traits. Something I cannot understand and which causes me to give such people a wide berth.

FACT: I ENJOY fishing for Trout Using a Dry Fly. FACT: I WILL continue to do so. Have Fun. Jax
