  1. a day on the water is more important than the fish caught
  2. no longer need the latest rod,line etc
  3. have fly s that are older than most people i see fishing
  4. most of my old fishing buds have moved on
  5. the good old days are always better than today

The only one I disagree with is #5. What I have learned on “each” of the good old days has made today even better.
Good fishin’ to you!

Here’s one Jeff Foxworthy might have come up with…

“If you learned (like myself) to fly-cast with your Dad’s fairly new BAMBOO rod…you might be an Old Fly-Fisher.”
