Will Outfish Anyone

[oneshot 1]

I was watching a video of a guy saying unless you are using his method he can outright you. 

What he was doing was using Ultralight with 2 pound test with a Red Wiggler hooked once.  No weight. 

Looked like it would work great for smaller fish.

Even a 2-year old can catch fish on live bait. If your goal is to catch fish to keep, there's often no better way.  Put crispy bacon on my plate, I'm probably gonna eat it.

If you want to learn more about the fish, I think the general premise is that it takes more knowledge, skill, and experience to fool a fish into thinking something artificial is food.  But that isn't everyone's goal, and that's ok.

                100 percent agree and crafting flys that fool the fish and landing them is the rush. Eating fish is secondary and most of the time not even a goal. Can I get an Amen Dave.

Amen Dave. 😜

We all should be cognisant that each of us is on our own ride through this life.  Some never eat what they catch, some only fish for food.  Neither is wrong, as long as there are still fish to be caught.

Heck, based on the struggles I encounter while fishing, with fish I know are there REFUSING to bite.... I know my way IS NOT necessarily the best way, or at least sometimes it certainly isn't.  I still enjoy it.

I've seen those fish attack a cigarette butt so your flies don't impress me.

But I'm also the guy that won't fish an ugly fly or any other lure.

        Ronnie haven't you noticed the fish finally realize that tobacco product isn't good and they spit it out. I'm thinking fish are smarter than some of my friends and kinfolk.😁

Tobacco is just a PLANT.   

You sit around a campfire happy as a clam. Pilfer around in huge piles of burning leaves.  Stand over a 55 gallon barrel of burning garbage poking it with a stick.   Burn off acres of wooded hillside with all manner of vegetative growth, and it's all for the greater good... .......But then someone ignites a 2" stick of rolled tobacco within 25 yards of you, and suddenly your respiratory system goes into shock, and the concerns of contracting lung and lymph nodal cancer become overwhelming.  🤔 

Meanwhile the fallout of hairspray in your bathroom, the fumes from nail polish and it's " remover",  and the diesel exhaust from the guy next to you at the drive-thru at the bank go unnoticed.

Dude, your brain, and the effectiveness of its programming, should be a case study.  😂

            Are you qualifying here as friend or kinfolk? You act as if I was talking about you? 😃

    No hairspray in this house or artificial scents that I can handle of any kind. Cannot remember the last time I smelled acetone outside of my shop which would include nail polish remover.  I assure you I try to limit offensive smells of any kind. I also am smart enough to place myself upwind when needed.  I really do try to control what gets into my body, my temple in moderation or none at all. 

    You are so easy to stir up

Yeah but with my cat like reflexes I just need them to touch it.

Both. 😁 

And I know you're one of those.... Stand by the trash barrel and poke until every bit of refuse is reduced to ashes kinda guys.
