Thumbs down I'm sure we've all watched a 'fishing show' on TV and 'cringed.'

There's one on now (Sportsman's Channel) called "The Camp.' Apparently this was (is if it's a series) on the Leaf River in Quebec. No idea who the two nimrods are that are fishing, but I strongly suspect neither has spent much time with a fly rod (one guys using a single hander, the other a Spey).

God their casting is 'ugly!'

Neil, we have a term here in the US: "Cruel and Unusual Punishment." It can even get you out of Prison.

He really does press all your buttons, doesn't he? I must admit Neil, after our last exchange I watched the first new episode and found myself yelling at the TV for him to "PUT IT BACK IN THE WATER THEN!!!!". Maybe it's a pre-requisite to be a prat in order to make it as a celebrity? Mr. Hayes included.
