In a current story over at Area & Stream, Joe Cermele and Miles Nolte take turns debating which fly anglers are higher: these from the West, or again East?
It’s a tongue-in-cheek dialogue, in fact, however you would possibly discover a little bit of advantage of their meanderings. If nothing else, it’s an entertaining take a look at the stark variations between the 2 largest fishing subcultures in America.
Cemerle argues for the jap anglers, and the crux of his argument is that fly fishing within the West is simply too straightforward to make any anglers on the market “good.”
“I’ve by no means felt that strain on a Western river,” Cermele mentioned. “Possibly it’s as a result of I do know with so many extra trout per sq. mile, I’m more likely to transfer extra fish or get extra pictures at sippers. Possibly it’s as a result of even when I whiff the browns, I’ll no less than smack 25 cutties. However it doesn’t matter what the river throws at me within the West I’m not fearful about it as a result of I minimize my tooth on East Coast trout.”
Nolte fired again, saying East Coast anglers are unbearable.
“All of them present up with unrealistic expectations, and when these expectations crash towards the rocks of actuality, guess who they blame? Everyone however themselves.”
Once more, it’s an attention-grabbing learn, and you could find the entire thing here.
