Largemouth / Smallmouth

[Buzz]

Solus, if you are interested in the subject you should consider going. Tim can and will offer up his knowledge freely. I know I've had some good talks with him in his shop, when he's not too busy . Also, please don't take any of these comments out of context. I'm sure they weren't directed at you personally.

And no, I didn't notice the Largemouth/Spot in the picture. Although I looked at it several times and thought it just wasn't quite right.

I am VERY interested in the subject and now I find myself with enough time and $ on my hands to pursue it. I would like to meet Tim and chat with him face to face before I make the commitment to go to the program.

Where is his store?

I still giggle a little when I look at that picture of the spot. Don't get me wrong, It is a fine picture, just a little out of place,lol.

As far as some of the comments earlier in this post, It's hard for me to put up with arrogance. I'm sure those who were being just that, have no clue. Maybe I'm just getting to old to put with stupidity.

You seem to be a nice gentleman. Thank you for your respectful and informative reply.

Ozark Trout Fisher - I believe your right, I see a spot, and yes It is a perty pic. I guess my questions were over your head?

Chief Grey Bear - As a matter of fact if I am going to take the time to go the program, then yes, his credentials do make a difference. If I want some off the shelf tips I'll ask the guy in the John Deer ball cap that hangs out in the wally world fishing isle. If I'm going to burn the gas I want to make sure the guy knows what he's talking about. I'm probably not the only one in the world that hasn't heard of Tim. I just wanted a little background info on his expertize in the field before I waist my time driving all the way to Springfield. From what everyone is saying, he knows what he is talking about and he is a nice guy. That's what I wanted to know. You'll excuse me if my boldness offended you.

You asked for credentials and I gave you some. By your reply to OTF and myself, it would indeed appear as if you are the one offended.

Sarcasm is intellect on the offensive.

And as I adjust my hat.....

Tim owns Tim's Fly Shop in Cassville outside of Roaring River. He knows the fish down tehre very well(I think he has them named) and also knows alot of the spring creeks in the area very well. Crane, Capps, etc.

Also....before you play a statement off as arrogance, you should know the person well enough to put that tag on them. Making a rash ASSumption by a random post on a fly fishing message board seems a bit closed minded.......that's just my opinion.

Nope, that's a LM. Al would never paint a spot. LOL

I didn't think so . My mistake.

Good point.. But what if the opinion is based upon reading numerous posts over the course of a few months.. Is it safe to make call that an educated guess, or is it still an ASSumption? Maybe we could call it an "educated ASSuption".. Would that make Solus (potentially) an "Educated butt"?

(sorry, couldn't resist.. The logic is flawless)

Solus, I don't blame you for asking the questions... I think you've picked up on how this forum operates..

CHEERS!

""Sarcasm is intellect on the offensive.""" Think about it,,, you just admitted you were trying to be offensive.

I have read your past posts. I tag them as I see them. Even if you can't see it, you wear that tag like a badge of honor.

If you represent the type that are going to attend the program, then I don't think attendance will be very high. How is that supposed to help Tim? Or this forum?

Nope. Not offended. As much as you and OTF try, I'm not offended. Just disgusted and repulsed.

Yes, you did try to answer my credential question, but, it was so rapped up in judgmental high mindedness,it was hard to pick out.

Fact is, there are allot of people that wont post on this forum because of the High Horse cavalry,,,, Chief.

When I started this thread I thought the program sounded like a good thing. Something I may be interested in. so I asked a few questions. You and OTF have changed my mind. Thanks for saving my time and gas money.

Pm received,

On the public forum you imply I am an butt-(sumption) and call me close minded, yet in a PM you actually show a little civility. That in it's self says something.

I'm sure what ever needs to be said can be said publicly.
