Best Old-Timer Tip

Ya, I remember Fins and Feathers. They got me for the $82 "life time subscription" ...............about three monthes before they went under. I really hate dishonest people.
My advise... don't buy "life time subscriptions" to magazines
And from my dad: "if it sounds too good to be true.....it probably is"
We live, we learn, we fish

Cheers

Patio, Who do you know? If I'm not mistaken, my "Lifetime" subscription was $100 and I received 3 (yes, count them 3) issues, and they're still in the plastic bag! Guess they had to pay their bills somehow. Why not stick it to their loyal subscribers! 2dalake, Yep, I do. Just what is OLD to you? That mag ONLY went under 20 years ago! I also remember when the Cabela Bros sold dry flies by mail through magazine ads! Good flies ,too!

It's good luck to keep the first fish, no matter what it is.

"What?...Just callin' the fish."

I've also been told that eating onions or peppermints bring good luck fishing. confused.gif

My dad always said "You have to catch weeds to catch fish" when I was reluctant to toss my line out when trolling to close to the lilypads, reeds, etc...

He also said "You always catch a fish On the Turn"

Country music or the Twins game playing on the radio always increased our luck...

Phred,

I was still in high school when that mag folded, so it's old to me. I didn't bite on that lifetime offer, sounded too good to be true, and it was.

Just another piece of good advice from my dad.
