Lets face it old school has it tough. For exmple

Old school needs nail clipper to cut line--teeth no
longer come together. New School still got teeth.

Old school needs to put on specs in addition to light.
Fingers no longer able to tie knots by feel alone.
New School should not need either, should learn to
tie knot by feel.

Happy New Year new and old school.

Old school - likes to fish alone
New school - has to fish with 3 other guys

Old school - Gear is falling apart, but lots of time to use it
New school - top of the line gear, but no time to use it

Old school - makes a fish call after the fishing dies
New school - On the cell phone while fighting the first fish

Old school - exaggerates catches because of failing memory
new school - exaggerates catches to inflate ego

what if we use old school gear (glass lamis and squidders) sometimes and new school gear other times?

New Skool: Bombas OB with various and sundry friends smashing topwater for large!

OS: freezing cold in vynyl waders for three weeks to catch a dink.
NS: cozy and warm in Aquaskinz, just waiting for them to come to us.

OS: Fishy fishy in the brook with our old pal Ray "Cookie" Ferrioli.
NS: Getting mugged by bassmaster and having plug surfing contests while extholling the virtues of the Twisted Tea and Diet Mike's.

OS: Bomba's in trouble for 4 wheelin a little off the beaten path on Sandy Neck.
NS: Bomba's smuggling in pizzas to the fourteen hour line to buy a pass for the OB.

Later,
Rick

New School
LED lights synchronizations exercise with buddies before a trip "Ok ,listen up guys.If you got a bluefish put on a green LED and yellow for a weakfish.If you get a bass ,gives us 20 red flashes and will be right over."
Old School
Comparing the size of your cows
New School
Comparing the size of your Bogas
Old School
Bringing a nights catch to the fish market for sale
New School
Buying the nights catch at the fish market after the trip (It keeps the truck clean for soccer practice)
