Trout- Part One

[Flysmallie]

our disorder that causes us to travel 1000 miles to chase after a footlong (if that) fish. But it's really quite hopeless. Once you are afflicted, it is a chronic disorder with no available treatment. It only continues to devolve

I'm not sure what it is, but I like it. Hell I've left the country to chase a bass so I completely understand.

All I see resulting from that is a terrible hangover, so let me just forfeit right now

Sissy.

Me too, but I never did figure out why the Mexicans on the border act like they've never heard English?

Mark, you just haven't been fishing the right places. After your first truly wild trophy trout (I didn't say native), you'll have a completely different respect for them. Fast, blue water, big runs, and 3' high jumps hooked me and keep me dreaming.

Oh I understand the overall experience of fishing in a mountain stream like the Rockies. I have done it several times, albeit not very successfully. Man, those streams are fast!! And tough wading and trying to walk the banks!! But I've caught a few trout in the mountains streams. I agree, the awesome scenery, solitude, and uniqueness is 99% of the experience. Heck , I would take a day on a mountain stream and getting skunked over a day on a Missouri stream, lake, or pond catching a boat load anytime.

Same reason the group that ran over me at SDC Saturday all of a sudden couldn't speak english. They use it to their benefit.
