    Doug,
    You're right about that one! Tori has already been showing the (soon to be 2 year old) twins how to reel fish in like Grandpa showed her. I think I've created a monster!!....goodie, goodie!

    -A fish caught on a dry-fly is six inches longer than one caught on a nymph.
    -Nymph fishing is not for me, unless they're not eating dries and I actually would like to catch a fish.
    -A wild fish is twice the size of the same sized stocker.
    -A stocked trout is still better than a wild chub or horny head.
    -Whitefish CAN jump but choose not to, just to keep you in suspense 'till the very end.
    -Carp will eat an 8" streamer if you let it just lay on the bottom.
    -Mullet will eat clouser minnows.
    -Gulls will eat floating mullet patterns.
    -Hellbenders are real and they have teeth.
    -Bears are real and they DO **** in the woods.
    -An unmeasured 20" fish is usually about 3" shorter than a measured 20" fish.
    -And last but not least... ANY bamboo rod is more fun than ANY plastic rod!

    Thank You Son of Martin !! Your words are the same as the words from my heart. And, yes, you will have grandchildren. Fishin with my 18 year old son is the very best ! And, he's a better fisher than I in many ways. I just love to watch him fish.
    Fishin with my granddaughters is the best too.............................ModocDan
