What a ridiculous dumb arse! He's missed the whole point of Western fly fishing. The time spent journeying to the remote stream and spending hours alone in the peace and quiet just casting. Just proves some people have way more money than sense.

Who says he doesn't? If you read what he said, he stated if he only has an hour or two he can go right out out his back door. He never said that is the only fishing he does.

I have a buddy with a camp in Grand Isle that is equally as nice or better than the pics you posted. It doesn't suck.

The most shocking part is the HOA fees going to something worthwhile

frick that, that's not really fishing. A stock personal stream with computer controlled condition. That is almost literally shooting fish in a barrell. Fishing is going out in the water, not knowing for sure if you will catch anything, and working with whatever you got to catch em.


Amen. This is just messed up.

I'm pretty sure they do something similar to this in public waters. A guy i used to work with was from TN and said they would have hatchery releases in public rivers on Thursdays. By Saturday, all the fish were caught.

Fishing in stocked ponds is "harvesting", like walking the seafood aisle at rouse's

Different strokes I guess

About 20 years ago I knew someone who spent a summer interning for Goldman Sachs private wealth division, they cater exclusively to billionaires and such. He spent a good part of that summer making sure a certain stream was stocked with fish so that the Big Fish downstream would have a good day fishing.

Yet I have working legs and never go fishing. This is like one of those O'Henry stories.

The video mentions three couples buying a place in Arkansas for fishing. One of the couples mentioned is Danni and Bert Jones. Probably the former LSU qb.
