    A fly fisherman's psalm... (mid atlantic)

    Friday, September 28, 2007, 11:34 AM [General]

    My fly rods are my shepherd; I shall always want more.
    They maketh me sneak new ones in the house so thy wife won't notice:
    They leadeth me beside still spring creeks filled will cress bugs and hungry trout.

    They restoreth my soul: They leadeth me in paths of righteous fly fishing
    for the sake of catching thy quarry in a gentlemanly fashion.

    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of conventional tackle,
    I will fear no fireline, treble hooks, or bass assasins; for thou art with me;
    thy fly rod and thy wading staff they comfort me.

    Thou preparest a tying table before me in the presence of bait fishermen
    thou anointest my head with devcon 5 mintue epoxy.
    my materials runneth over.

    Surely 30 inch stripers and rising trout shall follow me
    all the days of my life:
    and I will dwell in the house of the palmered hackle and bucktail
    forever.


    Say that 4 times while swinging a cat over your head and you shall be forgiven for baitfishing.
