My two cents here, I'm going to piss somebody off for sure but here goes.

When I read that thread I thought, wow, some of these guys have the "I'm better than you" mentality that I see as very common with the flyfishing crowd. To me, fly fishing and surf fishing both have their loyal followings, but the attitude seems to be..."I'm just a little bit better than you because I appreciate the sport more than you because I use a 6 wt flyrod, not bait, not wire, not plugs, etc, etc."

Which is similar to this debate, "if it wasn't caught on a beach, it was easy to catch a 60 lb bass. Now if it were caught on a beach, that's real sport"
