The day was cold and it was calm on the river. All of that was about to change as one member of Team BJAC and an accomplice showed up on this once quiet river. "Previously it was thought that these clowns only resided in the state of California. The fact that at least one has now been spotted in the northwest is of great concern to us" wildlife officials said.
We decided to go undercover to see what all of the fuss was about. Posing as fly fishermen we searched this river until we found one of these clowns holding a fish. It was noted that at the time of this picture he was trying to disguise himself as there is no evidence of any clowning around. From the picture he looks to be pretty happy with this fish.
Evidently not everybody was happy with their presence. When we were there we heard several shotgun rounds go off in close proximity. Then we heard branches behind us breaking and pellets hitting the water (yes unfortunately this really happened. I am not joking around. Seriously know your fricking backdrop!). One of the clowns yelled angrily and no more shots were heard. One clown was then heard saying in a joking fashion "I wonder if I should return fire".
We interviewed several fly fishermen to see what they had to say about these clowns. "We don?t like them here" one fisherman who wished to remain unidentified said. "They dispel the myth that we are stuffy snobs and we just don't like that". "Plus they don't dress like true fly fishermen" another person said. Another fisherman said "They fish with those damn toy rods". "Seriously who the heck fishes rods that are under a 3WT"? "Anybody knows you need to fish at least a 5WT for trout".
We will bring you more on this story as more information becomes available.
