    Default Castwell, ... Recycle

    JC, ...

    Got a nice chuckle this morning reading your weekly: [url=http://www.flyanglersonline.com/cst/:04d99]http://www.flyanglersonline.com/cst/[/url:04d99]

    Thanx ... Maybe you could start a trend ... recylce AND inform people.

    imho, ... I do the same thing on me home waters. There are galleries here and there to observe salmon. When I'm napping or looking things over, ... I'll often pin a fly into the woodwork.

    Other anglers will ALWAYS collect the fly (eventually). They also know it's from a guide. Sometimes I'll be just leaving and an angler will call out "Hey, ... you forgot a fly here", while he or she is looking it over.

    I'll reply, "Oh, ... Keep it".

    They'll reply, " Hey, ... your flies are barbless!"

    Yup, ...

    We all have an obligation to the resource. Teach by example.

    Great stories, both of you! Here's another:

    In our area we have a monthly fly fishing magazine that has stream reports, some articles, lots of ads, and is perfect reading material for the throne room. I always bring a bunch of these to work to give to the students in my fly fishing club and to the few anglers I know who work there. I also leave one in the women's room that I frequent. A couple of months ago a sign appeared on the women's room door: "This is the WOMEN'S ROOM. It is NOT the MEN'S ROOM which is down the hall. PLEASE use the CORRECT room."
    Now.. these rooms are one-seaters so I knew someone was in a bad mood. Eventually, I figured it out.....

    One of the other women who work in the building complained to me that men were using the women's room and that it was disgusting. I asked her how she could tell since I'd never seen the seat left up even once

    She said, " Whoever he is, he's leaving some stupid fishing magazine. Like we're too stupid to know that only a guy would do that."

    When I finished laughing, I told her that if she threw out my fly fishing mag one more time, I was going to have to charge her for it.

    Still cracks me up remembering her face.

    Diane, LoL !!!

    I guess some people START off the day in an "agressive attitude".

    Keep up the good work.

    PS. The new student coming to Ithaca isn't the guy's son, ... it his daughter, ... You might have a new member for your FF Club

    Yeah, but is it "recycle" or "recirculate"? Sort of like, I have a dollar bill and I give it to the cashier, I have just put that dollar back into circulation.

    Just a thought for the day.

    Don't feel bad, I'm not sure I spelled it correctly myself.
