A F@$N MEN...we should all remember that one!!!

If I can give back to others 50% of what this sport/hobby/way of life has given me I would die a happy man.

That being said...I have dozens of Googan stories both surfcasting and boat fishing and the number goes up to the thousands when I think about flyfishing.

Latest laughable moment was this summer when I was telling some friends about how well I have been doing in club casting contests and how much I have been learning about distance casting during my trips to the outer banks...can you see this one coming...back to back to back monster backlashes...two rods, three reels and within ten minutes I was all done for that tide...replacing the line was inor compared to how stupid I felt. It's funny now!!!!!
