    It wouldn’t really be an upset, honestly. We’re favored by 1, and ESPN gives auburn a 51% chance of winning.

    But it ain’t gonna happen. Your boys can watch us in Atlanta from the couch.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    Anyone got any fishing planned this weekend?

    Were heading to Allegheny National Forest to camp and fish for the weekend. Going to attempt to target river run browns.

    Don't let not having a mentor hold you back.I taught myself how to cast and I manage to catch fish....sometimes. That being said I still need some coaching on my casting.

    Playing with it is key!!!:rofl:

    I always thought that casting would be the hard part about fly fishing. Casting isn’t that difficult once you learn the basics. You’ll lose plenty of flies initially, get hung up, etc etc.

    Looking back now, I wish I had taken a course or two in entomology. You can spend a lot of time perfectly casting the wrong fly, and catch no trout, or make less than perfect casts with the right fly and catch fish.

    I taught myself to flycast from reading field and stream magazine when I was 10 or 11.

    I don't feel sorry for anyone that can't fly cast.

    You tube is a great teacher.

    Get a cheap rod and head to a parking lot.

    The rubber is way better for the fish than the old fabric ones not to mention the old old plastic mesh ones.

    I have several, including one from day one. Just didn’t know what was what for a while. I knew general types, but not specific species.

    I'm not super good with the species. Mostly use it to match the hatch and to see what's going on down low.
