old school opening day

[lightenup]

This wasnt about the opening day crowd, but more about giving the fish and stream a rest from constant impact.

this makes as much sense as wearing one wading boot.....so we on NEFF give the fish a break on opening day, but the rest of the angling world goes out and thumps them on the head with rooster tails and 5 ozs of lead with 20 salmon eggs strung under a meal worm with a red wiggler tied to the hook eye....how do the fish or the stream get a "rest"?

If I could have typed it with stick men drawings so you could understand it, I would have. I mean close the stream down for a period of time so that..... Aww never mind.

No, no, don't never mind me, I want to see this stick drawing thing.....like the caves of Altamira????

i remember the anticipation of opening day. Now it seems with most streams open year long the streams and fish never get a break. And opening day is a thing of the past

I was a little worried about this one. The thought of you posting a photo of yourself standing in the river knee high with nothing on, playing with your ugly stick.

Its not an ugly stick but more like a spey rod.

You misspelled spey. The e should have been an a.

no rest for the trout, they are constantly moving anyway.
