I once caught a wind surfer the same way when fishing with bait My line was out and the clever man tried to go between me and the hook as he went out the line came around his leg
And I hooked up! 25 metres of screaming drag later he fell off! As I said to him - a little basic courtesy and good manners would have saved him a nasty injury and a lot of indignity Regards Nick We are the Music-makers And We are the Dreamers of Dreams -----Original Message----- From: Bill Higdon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 2:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [VFB] corn in trout diet Move in a little closer......double haul, and imagine their head as the practice plate in the backyard. As the line wrap around their neck and suddenly pulls them off it is fun. It feels like a good strike, but not quite like a Texas Bass. The downside, it take a few minutes to get untangled and you have to listen to a whining jet skier.

Your suggestion is somewhat less violent then mine. LOL Now I am not suggesting that all us flyfisherman carry 9mm's,or become violent, mind you. But I sure wish I had something a little more "awakining" when a jet skiier drove bnetween me and the shore line I was fishing.

On the other hand, you seldom get to ride on a cart and eat hot dogs while performing brain surgery. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Wendt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 7:22 AM Subject: Re: [VFB] corn in trout diet : That would be an interesting experiment...
