Clouds are not interesting… but the STIG* is.

Some say his fly rod grows from his finger like the silver Terminator, and that the hooks on his flies are actually teeth he’s shed, like a shark. Others say he’s convinced clouds are following him. All we know is, he’s the most interesting guide in the world. * I don’t always get to fish [...]

The Most Interesting Friday

____________________ He does not believe in 3-x tippet, jet skis, or fruit in beer. The last time he was asked how many fish he caught, 3 fishermen quit and took up miniature golf, another ate his flyrod, and a 5th spontaneously combusted… he used the carbon in the ashes to make himself a new flyrod [...]

Most Interesting Fridays: Bigfoot edition

________________ He invented philosophy so trout fishermen could write books, and feel better about themselves. His future beard will inspired the legend of bigfoot and the Yeti… in the past.

*The FLYOSOPHER cometh…

The author–the so-called “Sean Juan” Murphy–runs (and I use the term loosely) a blog (again, loosely) that manages both occasional and prodigious output (or perhaps, throughput, is more accurate) on the subject of fly fishing… more or less. It is, I [...]

Halloween Can Be Interesting

At costume parties people come dressed as him. He’s never once been asked, “trick or treat?” …they just give him the treat and leave. Every Halloween he dresses as himself, and still wins “Most Interesting Costume”. He is still the most interesting guide in the world. If you don’t have TV, never visit sports bars, [...]
