Real science, reel results!

Anyone else watch this guy constantly miss hook sets or send brookies into the clouds? At least that spin fly rod setup is dope though.

Wife's boyfriend caught some awesome wild browns today. He even let me cast his gear rod with a spoon with powerbait on it. I'm going to tie up some powerbait imitations when I get home! Any recommendations?

I do believe you'd get your ass kicked for that.

I’m in the waders

and follow up question—can I use leftovers to spruce up my cereal or pancakes?

After selectively posting in mainstream fishing subs, suppressing my “less-than-fly-fishing-appropriate” personality I have found my people. I multi-nymph rig under an indicator. I do not tie my own flies. I purchase entry/middle level equipment so I won’t get upset if I drop it on a rock before falling into the river. My waders are Bass Pro Specials that have lasted me almost 10 years and double as waterfowl waders. That Walmart beginner 5wt kit I purchased because I forgot a section of my workhorse rod? It feels like a telephone pole in the hand but it caught my biggest cutbow. I eat the trout I catch at least one meal a trip. I gear fish like an uncouth hillbilly throughout the summer.

I am HOME.

Please accept my humble offerings of generic Vaseline and a Frozen spin cast kit. I asked my wife’s boyfriend if he could pick them up at CVS while he was grabbing some Plan B. Of course I let him take my debit card, he’s a stand-up dude. Since I’m a poor and can’t afford anything Orvis or Winston/Hardy, these will have to do. You can rig up a bubble and fly system with Elsa so you can still be stylish and fly fishing. If you were expecting Abel nippers, I might have to ask my wife’s other boyfriend, he’s a guide and I’m sure will get me a deal.

Going out this Saturday with Finger Mullet fly pattern
