How did anyone ever catch trout?

[eman]

Ain't a swingin Pair a gonads in this world that i'm jealous of . i got a good wife a good family a roof over my head, a few folks i'm proud to call friends and food to feed us all. I may not get to go fishing every day or every month for that matter. But when i do it's for the enjoyment of being in the outdoors the creator has put there for me to enjoy. If i catch some fish, that much the better. But to me being w/ good friends and enjoying the day is what it's all about. I would rather not catch a fish the rest of my life than to have the attitude that i am the best or i can out do anyone else.
If you want to buy the best of everything and the biggest of everything then more power to ya. Glad ya can afford it. I do know that a good rod an reel makes it so much easier to cast all day but unless you are fishing a lure where you need to feel the strike , It's really just a more exspensive line holder. The fish doesn't know or care if you are fishing out of a tin boat or a 50k boat . The fish doesn't know if you are casting a $500 set up or a wally world special.
Only the fishermen do.
