old stuff

As I periodically clean out my fishing stuff, I run across a lot of old fishing stuff that I bought when I had just started fishing (mostly lure fishing things). I keep them around because I think that my kids might use them one day, or maybe I'll find somewhere to donate them but they mostly just hang around... I remember buying all this stuff, excited & imagining that I'll catch all this big fish. Looking at them makes me smile.

    나도 오래된 낚시도구가 있는데
    가끔 창고에서 꺼내 볼 때면
    오래된 친구를 만느는 기분이
    듭니다...ㅎㅎ

    When I see a big muskie passing me by and I can't get it to chase any of the flies, I often wish I have some shiners on hand. I saw an interesting on line discussion about fly fishermen and the sometimes snobbish attitude that comes with it...

    I like the "best" answer reply. worth a read.

    None of us belong in this snob group maybe except ksanchun.

    Did you noticed that every "non purist" fly fisher say that they do other style fishing "occasionally" or "rarely"? I think once you get into fly fishing, you automatically turn into snob without realizing it.

    GF, at least Ksanchun is honest with his feeling. He doesn't post a story about "old stuff" and donate his non fly fishing gear to the poor.:p

    BTW, I want that sponge bob bobber.

    yes but at least I am honest about lying.

    FF - I've also got some spiderman rods too.

    this is going to lead to a healthy discussion - I can feel it.
