In a current story over at Field & Stream, Joe Cermele and Miles Nolte take turns disputing which fly anglers are much better: those from the West, or back East?
It’s a tongue-in-cheek conversation, obviously, however you may discover a little bit of benefit in their meanderings. If absolutely nothing else, it’s an amusing take a look at the plain distinctions in between the 2 biggest fishing subcultures in America.
Cemerle argues for the eastern anglers, and the core of his argument is that fly fishing in the West is too simple to make any anglers out there “excellent.”.
” I have actually never ever felt that pressure on a Western river,” Cermele stated. “Perhaps it’s since I understand with many more trout per square mile, I’m most likely to move more fish or get more chance ats sippers. Perhaps it’s since even if I whiff the browns, I’ll a minimum of smack 25 cutties. However no matter what the river tosses at me in the West I’m not stressed over it since I cut my teeth on East Coast trout.”
Nolte fired back, stating East Coast anglers are unbearable.
” They all appear with impractical expectations, and when those expectations crash versus the rocks of truth, guess who they blame? Everyone however themselves.”
