You just got yours? Mine's been mounted on the wall since.... okay,
I'm lying as mine arrived today as well WITH MY DUES PAID VFB
MEMBERSHIP CARD. Thanks Wonderb...er...Byard.
The hat. First, it will reside in the shadow box but I give myself
permission to wear it in public in good weather but never to fish in
until I retire. You see, DEET disolves the Sharpie ink which sickens me
because the very first signed hat signature Byard sent me faded out from
DEET. Luckily, I have a Sharpie and expect Byard's presence before too
long.
Now some of you tell Byard to keep the VFB hat when you pay dues but I
defer to the $15 discount card from Line's End. Of course, he knows I'll
need more colors (smart marketing Byard) in future memberships. I've got
to place an order soon as there are the Whiting 100s and that certain brand of
hooks on sale.
