Well Mr. Ironhead.

I checked out your last little spot, and it was a verfied Zipper. Good enough to have to shake off a few biters until the crowd left. It has been two years since you produced a Zipper that was worthy of my presence. You will get no more Vienna Sausages until you prove that this was not a fluke. Any self respecting idiot knows that the Great Lakes steelhead run on the Root River starts every year on March 15th at 2:00 p.m on the upstream side of concrete slab on the hotel side of the river. Oh, and yes, you'll need chartreuse,cerise, flame yarn. Otherwise known as Chef Salad by fishermen in the know.

I have fished the junction of the Tigris and Euphrates. I found it to be not to my liking, as I could not find a suitable tackle shop that would provide me with the gear neccesary to fish in the proper manner. I left immediately as the shop owner Sadamma Bin Laden called me a nate killing, beach draggin, barb hooked,poaching, knotted net, Orca hating, sockeye keeping, van stealing, black box hording, bonkin, bait using, boat swamping, drone loving, seal kissing, rusty Vision hook, flossin long leader using pig fisherman. (wow, that tirade even impressed me)

As for the rest of you, I may have to ban you from the board until you produce. I see all these reports of big fish, with little to no information as to where the catches can be verified. I will not tolerate such behavior for long, as my patience is wearing thin.

Peace Boys. Just remember all the biatching is about fishing. There are no body counts. It is a recreational activity. There are a lot more important things going on in the world that demand our energies instead of ragging on each other.
