Funny lines. or ... best excuse for NOT catching fish

[fcch]

Over on a UK board I got a chuckle on a similar theme.

Then I started thinking back to some of the "famous last words" I've heard around here, ... Like ...

"Oh, ... I could have caught some, ... but I have clients tomorrow and I wanted to make sure they do well!"

or

"I could have connected, ... they were rising everywhere, ... I just don't prefer casting those #20-22 c-mids"

or

"We haven't caught much ever since they banned putting worms on the fly"

(sadly, ... these are all TRUE! ... the first two from "guides" I met in another region)

I hate taking them off the hook....

Based on my last two trips to )&$#%&* Creek, I only had time to try 100 flies. I know that the 101 probably would've been the right one!

Allan, LoL!!

I find it hard to believe a trout wouldn't want one of your flies (seen 'em ).

"Just got here."

Standard line for anyone who asks "How is the fishing?". Doesn't matter how long I have been fishing I just got here.

"Do you know how difficult it is to not get bit when they're in a frenzy like that! It takes a lot of skill to avoid all those mouths."


This the result of a unique experience during a wide open Yellowfin Tuna bite. Fish were caught on bare hooks.

[fcch]

Yup TailingLoop,

Takes skill to land that fly where none will take it during a feeding frenzy.
