GENTLEMEN!



I don't intend to blow smoke, if you know what I mean, but the posters on
ROFF seem to be a good lot. Humor and helpfulness prevail.

BTW, having completed my first season of fly fishing, I would like to state
that I met a lot of gentlemen on the stream. No one was nasty, except as a
joke.

I asked one person which fly he was using, and he replied, "None of your
f-in' business!" I said, "That's what it's called?" He said "Yep!"

Another guy was stomping what looked like a large olive leech in a mud
puddle to get it wet. I went over to take a look. He said "Some people might
take offence to you even watching what I'm doing." It was said with a smile.
