Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!

different categories of fly fisherman (show observations)

And the guy that is never wrong. Except for that one time, where he thought he was wrong.
 
I don't know where I fit in on this list, but it is very funny. I have one to add AND THAT would be the "poser". You know the guy, he spends thousands on gear, books, clothes and gadgets and somehow lets everyone know that he flyfishes.
 
How has everyone let Danme get away with a comment as gay as this? My faith in NEFF is diminishing..

OHHHH -- Now thats Funny -- man I got a GREAT BELLY LAUGH from that one -- Thank You for the Entertainment

Your a GREAT GUY would love to fish with you some day -- we would have a blast together

Peace
Dan
 
so funny. my home water the pequest has a handful of religious regulars, each of whom fits one of these descriptions word for word. im def psycho.
 
How about the guy with all the expensive equipment who drives 5hrs to take pictures of and count the number of cars in the parking lot.
 
Yeah, what a loser...

But doesn't it only take you 3 hours to get to the D?
Hey bimbo... leave me out of this. I take pictures of beaver trees.

maybe danme is right about you.
 
How about the guys that believe fishing any river but the Upper D is beneath them.I call them D-bags
 
Naturalist- Only fishes dries and looks down upon those catching fish on subsurface flies. Will only use a fly made of feathers, a bamboo rod and probably belongs to a club of sorts. Love to go home and romanticize on paper about how fly fishing relates to everything in life and when he sees a 6 inch wild brookie rise...he immediately jizzes his pants and falls in the water.
 
The Drunk - the guy who comes for the weekend flyfishing getaways strictly for the booze and campfire. When morning rolls around, he sleeps in and meets everyone on the river. He casts a couple of times, sits on the bank, then heads back to camp to finish the beer.

I have a friend who does this. Great guy, just has his priorities in a different order. We give him a ton of shit when he tells his wife he is heading out to do some 'flyfishing'.
 
so true this is spot on.....I don't mind the drunkness, but I do mind when one person's priorities slow down the pace of the trip the next morning. When the boat leaves the ramp, your either on board or on your own for the day. Can't stand waiting around for someone to shake off the hangover while I'm ready to roll. Same goes for ski trips.

I couldnt agree with you more JC..

Especially when your waiting at McDonalds in hancock for 2 hours to meet up with someone to float! :D
 
I thought I lived that day down after my 5am leadership for 2 consecutive days during the steelhead trip haha. You got me there, Touche.

I think this confirms your statement of being in the pyscho category haha. Well it was necessary on the SR and glad you took the lead. That makes me think...
How about a Circus Clown category? You know the opening day type that goes out b/c everyone else is there and it must be good fishin!


I've tried to be the drunk and the psycho...up latest and up earliest...and its very taxing.
I know there's some NEFFers in the drunk category...not to name names, but be careful on the hook sets or you can fall out of the drift boat
 
Tom, you and Dan be outsmarting everyone.

For as long as time, many have been ridiculed because of their apparent intellect.

Copernicus was ridiculed for hypnotizing that the Sun was the center of the solar system not the earth. Later it was proven to be a fact by Galileo.

Einstein’s cosmological constant theory was ridiculed by his peers stating that there is no such force. Edwin Hubble has observed that there is validly to the theory.

The Wright brothers ridiculed for attempting the worlds first flight. Wilbur proved them wrong.

I too must bare the cross ridicule. It is the price I must pay to entertain the small minded.
 
OK, so I copped to having some Psycho in me. Now on to the Drunk. Spent a nice 2 hours passed out in the mud in full gear on the angler's trail across from Barking Dog pool in the no-kill (WBD) a few years back. Woke up, drool running down my chin, mud in my hair, and big, wild brown trout rising all around me to Hendricksons. I have no idea who walked past/over my near-dead carcass on that day, but I awoke and quickly went psycho and pounded some nice fish after sleeping of the drunkenness. :)

That was you?

The only problem here is we are waiting for someone other than Beetle to prove you "smart"..:)
