A number of years back my buddy and i were kind of clueless/newbies at the whole deal. My buddy had a rough nite (read cheap whiskey) around the campfire, and we woke early to climb down a canyon to the stream. After about 45 minutes and 1000ft vertical of hiking a rock hopping we made it to the bottom. At that time we realized the following: 1. My friend had lost his net. 2. He had forgot his sunglasses. 3. He had forgot his hat. 4. Also in tune with our ineptitude was wearing neoprene waders in the middle of June. These are all of course 101 DO NOT FORGET deals.

We ended up making a net out of a mesh gear bag and a willow. Still managed to bungle into a few fish but this pic makes me LMAO evertime i come across it. Clueless
