Rudeness on the Farmington

[Magnet]

I finally talked my good friend Aaron into coming to Connecticut to fish with me. We had a fantastic morning catching lots of fish and then we happened to apparently get too close to a certain guide and her client. It was near the camp ground and it kind of put a damper on the day for us. No one should get into someone else on the river like that. We were only there for fun and it got snatched away.

The best was they couldn't buy a fish during a great caddis hatch. I didn't yell back, it took a ton of restraint as I'm not stooping to that level, but I did leave her a love note.

I have never had an issue with any guides on the farmington althouh I have had some ignorant people walk in and begin casting to the same fish I was working. This however seems to be quite rare and 99% of my outings result in meeting nice people and I have no issues with rude anglers (although ther are certainly alot of pigs leaving garbage ( I carry out a bag every time I fish)
All in all for the amount of pressure I think most people there are great

^ That second sentence should read "If I had thrown one we would have caught each other."

That note is hilarious!! If i had a guide like that I would walk out of the river, and drive home. She needs to get over herself, tighten things up, and act like a pro.

I was working a deep run Sunday and a guy came barging out of the woods on the opposite bank and started casting. If I had thrown when we would have caught each other.

I moved downstream, and the rude guy compounded his sins by catching a couple of fish in short order. Must have been that green bobber.

Another guy moved in and they started whipping in tandem. I beat it and caught a nice rainbow elsewhere.

This was pretty bad behavior, but it was also unusual. I have found the Farmington anglers to be almost universally considerate.

I think the real question is was she hot? Because no woman has any right to be crazy and ugly. I've only heard of one Amy Vokey. Just saying.

I agree it's generally nice there. This person was just yelling at people to yell.

I've had tons of people creep up on me during guide trips at the Farmington and they are usually such nice people that. You can't even get mad at them. It's a very unique thing there. There are so m y people but due to people generally being happy in nature, it does not feel as crowded as it is.

Brown chicken,
Please dont go there. The lady is a prominent and serious guide on the Farmington.

Just adding levity... No bad intentions.
