The amazing thing is that both flyfisherman and terminal folks are both guilty of poor fishing etiquette. Just the other day a fellow spey rodder jumped 40 feet in front of me on a river with no other people for miles.
Why is it the guys who always do that are the ones with the dumbass stickers all over their clean truck and the shiny expensive gear? Seemed to me like this guy was dying to let everyone know he was a fisherman...

Here's the deal; fish hard, but fish as would if you were fishing with your parents or your children. What lessons did they teach you? and what lessons do you want to teach them?...what lessons can we teach less experienced fisherman?

A polite note made my point clear to Mr. Dumbass the other day. Sometimes you just have to quit fishing and leave or else you might throttle someone.

this fly fisherman is praying for the sockeye season in the lake..the downrigger and flasher are ready!!!!!!

1. Always ask when sharing a run with another angler, no matter what the method

2. Never cut in downstream without permission
