I find some of the attitudes very interesting. I will tell all of the people that think bait fishermen are slobs, when I return from the bank or boat launch, I ALWAYS return with more trash than I arrived with. I really can't believe that some people cannot pick up after theirselves. So please refrain from classifying all bait fishermen as slobs.

In short, I think that just like an opinion, I believe that we all should be able to fish in the manner that appeals to us. I believe fly fishermen have the right to fish that way, as I have the right to fish with bait (of course,on lakes that it is approved).

In my previous post, I did not mean to offend anyone concerning the father and son issue. I do realize that there are quite a few mothers and daughters that enjoy the sport also.

As for fishnfellas, I am also glad you are on the east side. I don't understand your attitude. Who are you to think that anyone is looking for YOUR respect? You need to come down off of your pedistal. It is easier to reach the water from down here where we are!
