    Is it just me or does anybody else think the pictures of guys holding a fish in both hands and a fly rod in their mouth look a tad bit ridicules. I apologize if your one who does this as I don’t mean to offend anybody but it looks silly (((to me))).

    It reminds me of a joke where a golf instructor was teaching a young lady who was having some difficulty getting any distance with her driver. The instructor told the lady to hold the club firmly like you hold your husbands you know what. She tries again and this time the ball just dribbles a few yards in front of the tee. The instructor shaking his head says, okay, now take the club out of your mouth and try it again using your hands.

    Well, god forbid they put the rod down and just hold the fish.

    Trivia: What was the add that started all of the rod in mouth stuff?

    Hint: The pic for the add was of a guy wading chest deep in a weed bed. He is holding a large pike and it is supposed to appear as though he was in the process of landing it, thus the need to put the rod in his mouth. The intent was for action, not a hero shot.

    First person to get the correct answer gets a selection of my non-patented, no fail, go to egg patterns.

    I don’t have a clue. I would guess it was a Sage add???

    I believe the add that you’re reffering to was a Scientific Anglers ad advertising thier systems products, if I remember right.

    😛 I can’t imagine what the handle must taste like. S.D.
