2021 GILL FUCKERS COMMUNITY THREAD

[snapt]

This got me today, immediately put a smile on my face and it got a little dusty in my office. Brought back tons of memories of watching ESPN on Saturday AM instead of cartoons, and riding my bike to throw pumpkinseed powerworms texas rigged for largemouths in the town ponds. Not a huge mainstream country fan, but this was a great tribute.

I got real drunk with Bill Dance at ICAST in Vegas in 2013? He's as hokey in person as on TV. Dude could party for an old guy.

Back in 07ish when I was running a fly shop some guy named Luke Bryan called looking for a place to fish the next morning before he opened for Garth Brooks. He was real proud of the Bronco he towed behind his bus. Low and behold some hick walks through the door a couple hours later and yells "Hey y'all, I'm Luke Bryan!". Nice enough guy, but a goober. He's become good friends with a mutual friend and apparently can kill an impressive amount of silver bullets on a days float. Pretty good fly angler.

Won a work trip to Costa Rica back in 2019. Stoked my company came through and finally made it happen. Spent most of the time indulging at the four seasons on the company dime, but did get out for a day of fishing

Spent half the day trolling for mahi and tuna and half the day pitching big top water lures on heavy spinning gear for rooster. Wifey called it streamer fishing on steroids. Didn’t move any roosters but hooked up a handful of nice mahi-mahi.

As usual, wifey caught the biggest fish. Fuckin A, salt water is fun!!

Dammit. Now I'm gonna have to take my rod up to Steamboat with me this weekend.

Hey skifishbum - thanks for the inspiration to take my rod up to the Yampa Valley. Fishin' was fun and quite productive up there!

A dolphin swimming past is my bet. And I don't think it's a time lapse.

Well knowing where they are at I would guess either a bull red or a big drum....

It’s a mammal.

It’s a mammal.

Ah! Also makes sense given the locale

This weekend, while I was skiing Trollhaugen, my Mom’s meth head neighbor caught a steelhead on the Brule, at its mouth with Lake Superior. If this moron can catch one using a piece of tin foil and a nightcrawler, I’m pretty sure SFB will be able to swing a few up.

Instead of whining about politics on tgr everyday you should go swing a few up.

Always this way isn’t it? The blood, the sand all over it, etc.

Read my post, dumbass. I was skiing.

Heh, he is a nice enough guy. Really proud of that fish. He waited outside after dark for me to get back from skiing Trollhaugen to show it to me. Then he ate it.

That’s a nice fish.
How big is the steelhead fishery there? Do they grow to spawn age in the Atlantic, in Lake Superior or ???.

the games played w/ alternating 1/2 hour shifts
We both saw fish and had a few shots
the last hour both the pro and slamatuer git to throw
the slave hooked one under the bridge but it got off
i guess the florida street bridge has some drakian poopfish history
i dug back a good 40 pages of the slaves posts to try and find the under the bridge grafiti mural in its prime
i guess its buried under a lot of poliassfuck arguing and the cool fish ink art stuff he does

we ate lunch in the lot and headed south for our afternoon beat at 88th st
denver traffic sucks
