River fishing rant

Its right tool, for the job. I'm positive some of you think driving a nail with a big rock from the back yard is a cheaper and just as good as a hammer. Just don't look at the drywall afterwards.

Most of the time there is more than one 'right tool for the job'.

You use a hammer to hang sheetrock, I'll use a clutched screwgun. I'm not gonna get angry if you dent the walls with the head of the hammer a bit.

Jim, please tell us all about the art of catching the elusive Coney Island white fish.

It takes a very special fisherman with nerves of steel.

It's the catch & release. The ladies have the right bait to lure them in close, before the elusive snapper takes hold.

Speaking of fishing,
They should outlaw fly fishing. Its dangerous for anyone in the direct area around the fisherman what with that hook flying every which way and their attire is a whole nother matter in itself.

You're the Fly Fisherman Elite. Why don't you start it? It can be called "Friday's Fly Shop."

I've been fly fishing as well as tying my own flies since I was 11 y.o. (1978) and I've seen just as many fly fishermen being inconsiderate, incompotent morons as I have other fishermen.It really seemed to increase in the late '80s - mid '90s when there was a large influx of yuppie newbies to the sport.The OPs argument goes both ways.The last time I fished the Deckers/Trumbull stretch of river some flyfishing newbie jerk-off hooked a fish in the pool above where I was fishing and, without even thinking twice about it, proceeded to play his fish right through the water I was fishing without even an "excuse me" or "sorry".

Speaking of fishing and all that good stuff. I am going to Quincy res tomorrow with my nephew at 5am. Anybody wanna go with us? We will be using spinning gear and I have an extra pole if somebody needs it. Quincy is flys and lures only BTW

Do you have to have a habitat stamp to fish?
