Tempting... 15 Years, 7 Months ago
|
|
|
very tempting, but there's still life in my biz.
When you spend more than 25 years building up a fine reputation, it's difficult to pull up stakes and call it quits.
As I recall, Forks is a little small. Port Angeles would be more my speed, however, I gotta tell ya that 345 days of blue skies, winter temps in the 50's and summer temps in the 90's (and it's dry heat) is also difficult to leave.
The only thing missing is steelhead.

A steelhead fly fisherman needs two qualities:
A strong casting arm and a room temperature IQ.

The Shepherd will unfortunately have to wait until next week to make his cash back since the Street is taking tomorrow off in honor of the birth of their Lord and Savior who will ultimately lead them to the promised land!

Well ain't you just the fount of misinformation.....
Ed,
The Shepherd was not referring to that bait fisherman from Nazareth. The Shepherd was referring to the human gillnet with the flyrod for the Northern portion of the People's Republic who has taken this "Grapes of Wrath" market hostage!

Why don't you guys STFU about you stock trades and actually do some fishing. What did you loose 50 dollars or something like
That? 
Vitrified Melonhead, Master of (expletive deleted by Hitlerator) Idiocy, Two-handed, Washingtonian Monkey-Slapper or whatever it is that you're calling yourself this week,
If memory serves you have already been informed that the Shepherd posts whatever he wants, whenever he wants! The Shepherd is ABOVE the posting guidelines that are meant for the Sheeople to follow. There is a reason why the Shepherd leads and the Sheeople like you must follow! The Shepherd suggests that you calm your happy, dumb (expletive deleted by Hitlerator) down, drink a tall glass of STFU, down some Prozac and try to relax your anal retentive self! Should you not comply, the Shepherd will jam a jackhammer up your (expletive deleted by Hitlerator) and drill a hole big enough to install swimming pool!
FYI, unfortunately the Shepherd lost substantially more than 50 bucks (add some zeros...)
Also FYI, the Shepherd has been catching fish between 20-27" on dry flies! The Shepherd as you may have noticed, is very modest about his superhuman, and uncanny ability to catch every BIG fish present in the river, and does not feel the need to constantly brag about his angling prowess, unlike you and the rest of the inept lineslappers who feel the need to tell the world about every fish that comes to hand.

And I see that you continue to do your job, keeping this lame thread at the top of the list to satisfy your one unquestionably massive attribute, your ego. 
The Shepherd has numerous massive attributes! You OBVIOUSLY missed the thread where an ill-informed member of the flock, thought that the Shepherd and Uncle Jack were one in the same!
