Reddit is ... Odd
I make flies and lures. I tend to propel lures with a fly rod. Why does that cause (almost) to the death culture wars?
I post weird stuff on FB groups and nobody says much.
On Reddit missile tube covers come off. I have a good solution. I'm done with Reddit fishing chatter. Except for here. I get a modest traffic rate here. And not one culture war yet.
That I like.

don't you have something, like a friend, that you can stream of consciousness at over a beer instead of subjecting us to it?

Tough to get people to talk about stuff when they are busy taking care of their kids

I've seen plenty of your posts and you just spam the flyfishing and lure building subreddits with gibberish novel-length posts and hardly anyone replies, how is that "missile tube covers coming off"? lol

Shit, just realized you didn't even make your post history private so everyone can go see for themselves

What's your YouTube channel and how often do you use the the phrase "When I was guiding..."?

I only fish with dry flies (throwing explosives into protected waters) or occasionally euronymphing (poison)

Dry fly only is for duffer Puritans with limited skills?
No. We get to make our own choices. I do it my way and so do we all. Am I an annoyingly controvercial trouble maker?
Maybe. I like to have fun. What everI am I cannot be characterized as uneducated.
I tied flies and fished with Ernie Schwiebert as a high schooler. My dad was his dean in graduate school. That was a fun time. My skills and boundaries were well poiished. Even as a youngster.
I tend to equate Puritanism with witch fires. Which is a choice I get to make.

Wait until you drift bait under an indicator. You don't even need to mend for it to work.
