What every fisherman needs and should have
vv
Have you stopped laughing at my pic yet? this is the best of five I took
Anyway any fisherman worth his salt should have one of these on his wall in his space where ever that may be.
This space is for him,or his fishin buds anyone else must know the pass-word,this place is where you tye your flys,work on reels and have
your PC all those important things that guys have.
PC,s and digital camera,s are all fine an nice but they are nothing next to a cork bulletin board with some of your favorite fishin
pic,s,this is something you can look at anytime you want and smile,each Pic brings back memorys.
I had many more but my x some how lost most of the others when it came time to split the goods,she knew what I liked
Some of these shots go back to fishing in the late 40,s top right hand corner,Dad and I with two nice lakers.
If you don,t have one see what you are missing.

We used to have one. We called it "The Wall of Shame". It also started out as a cork board, but it couldn't help but expand as friends would add their
fishing/baja photos to it. The photos are all in an album now, not as fun as the wall was, but still bring back smiles.

Paulina,
'Every picture tells a story, don't it' Had to be the most popular room in the place. You really need to write a book about all your experiences.
You are a great story teller.

Thanks guys for your comments, it was a great wall and we miss it. It was at our restaurant Planet Pizza, which we closed a couple of years ago
November after Dern's dad passed.
We miss the wall, but sure don't miss the restaurant!

At home, the Sportsman's Warehouse has a bragging board for pictures, but they are mostly pictures from the local lakes and streams which means what
they are posting for nice fish are about the same size as what we catch here for bait, and we catch 6-8 at a time. I posted a picture of a large
grouper that I caught and it really did look out of place on this particular board, but at least the staff there knew me when I came in the store.

I know what you mean, when I moved to CO from SoCal I had to buy one of those toothpick sized rods to make
that trout feel like a real fish!

That is so true, but nothing has changed over time. Although I've caught some "lunkers" in Ca. , that is not the norm. As far back as I can
remember(50 yrs or so) ther has always been dinky freshwater fish in CA. Funny, once you cross the border, they are all a tad bigger.
Much of the Sierras that I flyfished for decades produced nice fish but never very large. That does not mean that giant fish are not in there. I can
think of a couple mountain lakes that had submarine sized fish. They did not eat I figgered. I threw everything but a duck on a hook to em and they
just cruised by, laughing and looking at me in that fishy wierd way.
A big trout in CA is 12 inches. I think they taste better than big ones.
