I definitely did not know Mr. Shiraka other than his posts on here and having read his OTW reports over the years but one thing always stood out about him, and always stands out anytime I think of it, and that is/was fly-fishing.
I remember some years ago of how Flaptail told his story of how, for years, he was nothing but a flyfisherman, believing that any and all other fishing methods were "barbaric" at best. I really do think of him and his story any time I think of flyfishing or getting into it. It was a while before he admitted he came to his senses and realized that he was limiting himself by only waving the long wand.
Funny that whenever I think of flyfishing or getting into it, I'll always think of him.
