I think his point is that being multi-faceted and being satisfied with pulling a fish or two out of different types of water over a day has become antiquated, while side-drifting up a dozen hatchery turds has become fashionable to the point that some anglers find themselves pretty ego-driven to just go out and put up numbers doing it.

I'll take two wild fish in a ten hour day of working hard over eight fish standing in front of the hatchery raceway any day, and that attitude seems to be disappearing from our sport.

I don't care if people sidedrift out of their sleds...whatever floats their boat...so long as they don't mind that I don't care for it, even a little, and won't be impressed by a box of bananas from the Cowlitz or Lewis, or something like that.

Fish on...
