Well, I think of Skues, Bergman, Brooks, Hewitt, Dette, Darbee, Wulff, Goudy, Gaddis, Leisenring, Flick, Gordon, Fox, Marinaro, Bates, Stevens, etc. etc. How did they do it! I guess these people were so good all the news followed them by letter, mouth, friendship.
With the internet, you get all the loose screws, rusty nails, make believers, false wisdom. Dim lights, less hope, more hope, new flies, old flies, my flies, best flies and worst flies! When a good person comes along, it is hard to figure, Their drift! Internet has made fishing a true science and kind of took the fun away! Most likely, all you read, you kind of already knew. You just did not do it or practice it! From old fishing to new fishing, what has changed! I thought fishing was to be fun. Take all the fun away and plant yourself on the internet. Spend hours talking about how it was or it is now! Spend your time on the internet, so, my friends and I, can spend more time fishing, without the know it alls. I can keep some, I can cook some, I can land some, I can fish in cold or hot times. I can fish everywhere! My way! And all the internet users with glassy eyes can say, you did it wrong!
Also figure this, with internet, you get me! I was fine doing my gig, before internet arrived. Internet says" Maxima12 your wrong". Before internet said," I want to go along" and catch some, "Maxima, will you bring the pan and butter"! Yep, and a bunch of cold ones too!
