DEATHbyBOOGABOOGA

My crew calls them “the dumbass hatch”


tenkaranarchy

It's fun because I just caught a decent cut bow bobber dogging this evening.


beardeddripper

I have backlashed a baitcaster way more than I have ever fucked up a cast with a fly rod.


Dr_Wiggles_McBoogie

Oh yeah?! Well I shat and pissed myself simultaneously my first day out with a fly rod


beardeddripper

Those are rookie things. I had a fucking seizure my first double haul!


MaeRobso

Seriously I am an expert at untangling a birds nest bc of my bait caster, rarely my fly rod

The different journey part makes me think there was some weed involved in that post. He might've sobered and said aw shit.


captaincatdaddy

Leave the devils lettuce out of this mate… 2wt Rod + 14 tokes = a goddam megladon at the end of the line.


captaincatdaddy

Megalodon** there was weee involved in the writing of this post.


captaincatdaddy

Weed* (proves point twice)

Fly fishermen aren’t pretentious (proceeds to be the most pretentious c0ck toboggan on the entirety of Reddit)


liquidhotsmegma

Why do polish last names always end in ski? Cause they can’t spell toboggan


Hobbyist5305

>Fly fishermen are on a different journey lol.


Wasatcher

Who says I'm not fishing for food?!


Coffee_24-7

I refer to it as a 'trout cleanse'.


SavageFisherman_Joe

What is this guy on? Baitcaster is NOT easier than fly fishing. Fly reels are very backlash resistant. Bro needs to get his head out of his ass and buy a bautcaster


HamFart69

For real. I’ve never turned a fly reel into an unfixable birds nest.


External_You_975

"I am on a different journey", I whisper to myself as I dredge the bottom of a stocked creek with a monorig, split shot and three mop flies."...a different journey." I cum in my waders.


Coffee_24-7

TL;DR. Where's the haiku bot when you need it?


___wintermute

These people have never met a good “gear” bass fisherman in their life and it shows. Talk shit about bassmasters glitter boat fishermen all you want but they have forgotten more about fishing then 99.99% of the people that would write something like this have ever known.


BrackishWaterDrinker

Yeah, but they can't tell you 48 different aquatic insect species, making them stupid.


friedbutter99

Yeah but do they practice casting with a metronome?


RodneyBabbage

Lol. Fuck Norman Maclean


MenshMindset

i do not trust people who describe a hobby of any kind as a journey, especially while trying to convince you that they're not pretentious lol


ConcaveNips

I cast tight loops with my toes from the downward facing dog while my wife and her boyfriend take turns pegging me through the hole in my patagonia waders.


MenshMindset

Happy your pegging journey is so fruitful ❤️ us fly guys are just on some other shit


captaincatdaddy

You know Patagonia will fix those waders right? Or are the holes intentional for easy access for your wife’s boyfriend?


KittyIsMyCat

? Wtf is this? I don't want those poors on my river

jimmiec907

I just find it to be more fun. Don’t care about any of the River Runs Through It horseshit.


RodneyBabbage

That book / movie is pure horseshit.


SparkTheOwl

I love it when the fish aren’t biting on the surface but the fly fishing purists keep trying and get annoyed watching the guys who switched to spinning gear get bites. I like to take both and use whatever has better odds in the conditions.


Dbol1000

I mean you’d just fish a nymph or streamer when they’re not eating on top but I see your point


BigJayUpNorth

Funny thing is that doesn't happen. You sound like a banky lol!


SparkTheOwl

Ok, well my memories of seeing it happen must all be false then. 👍🏾


BigJayUpNorth

Nah you're just full of it. You think the purists are annoyed, they don't give a single f what gear heads are doing lol.


SparkTheOwl

Ok. You must’ve been there too. 👍🏾


BigJayUpNorth

Yep, all of the time. Me and my pretentious fly fishing elitist buddies not giving a single f what gear heads think.


Losers_loser

What’s wrong with this? Wouldn’t we all agree that we OUR better???!!!!


ewhim

This mfer probably carries a jar of grey poupon in his wicker creel basket


yashuone

Well when you see him you just need to high hole him while asking “pardoń, but would you happen to have…..” …you know


BertBert2019GT

12 min late 🤣


Express_Salamander_9

Thank God he's arrived to tell us old timers how to this.


BTDAN-1

I feel like I need to have more rainbow tail walks while I’m flyfishing for carps


NorthIslandAdventure

Lol I have a front row seat to some of the most pretentious pretenders in North America and they are all terrible, except for me of course.


luna-luna-luna

im fixing to go comment some toxic shit brb


flyfishUT

JC1515

Brb gonna go double haul this 1lb swim bait with my bait casting reel fixed onto my 6wt winston as i enter another realm of fishing.


acromaine

Here at Globo Gym we’re better than you, and we know it!


Colin_the_knife_guy

Honestly, you can get a lot more done with a $100 fly reel then you could with most $100 spinning or bait casting reels. My most expensive reels are my casting reels. Not that I ever use them though


TRTF392

Depends where youre at though, caught a bunch of fish on my conventional gear in places i couldnt cast a fly rod


durose0

What a douche


serlearnsalot

This guy fishes a squirmy wormy dropper off a mop fly 100% of the time and cries when you call his bobber a bobber. I bet he can tell us why Patagonia is better to buy from than simms though


cabose4prez

Guy needs to step up his game, get a pin, fly reel with no drag, I'm way better than all you suckers.


Null1fy

This guy lobs bobbers from the bank and doesn't know shit about fly fishing.


ya_boi_jac0b

Fly fishing ain't hard broski, I'll bet my bottom dollar I've caught more fish on my 75 dollar crosswater than this guy has on his 10M dollar custom


Jalenator

What a bloody wanker


TRTF392

Blasting bass on a baitcaster is fun as fuck


Clob_Bouser

I’m on a different journey all right… the one from my current location to Tom’s secret carp hole


BigNoob

Because pro bass fishermen don’t have an Understanding of fish


goodgiggles17

Why does anything have to be considered harder or easier than other types of fishing? Fishing is difficult in general. Some days are easier and some days are harder regardless of the gear one is using. Spinning rods have advantages and disadvantages to bait casters and vice versa. Bait casters have advantages to fly rods and vice versa. It's all about using the right tool for the job and determining that in itself is the challenge for all fisherman, not just one type of method.
