If someone had a reason to be embarrased it would be a 20 year old kid named Matt, who grabbed my rod in the middle of a cast, and said "Wait, wait, don't cast. There's steelhead right there, you'll spook them."
This was about 2 seconds after the oarsman and I both said "there's steelhead right against that bank".
I had a beautiful nest in my reel that a robin later landed on and laid an egg.
Not that he's new to fishing. He goes by Steelslayer on GF, and has 2,963 posts on there.
I might have been mad if they were chrome springers, but the shock and novelty of someone grabbing my rod during the swing forward on my cast was funny, only because he instantly realized how insane he had just acted. Or maybe he's an undercover agent for PETA.
I'm still laughing. I forgive you Matt, your ok to fish with. But I did promise you..."Dude you know I'm going to have to put this on PiscatorialPursuits."
Matt pulls the hood over his face and says "As long as you don't have any pictures of my face." Sonafagun I don't.
