I've discussed and in fact suggested to a number of fishing
buddies that they keep a journal of their fly fishing
exploits. This practice is known to produce pearls of local
wisdom regarding ones favorite hatch or stream. If kept long
enough these journals can become as valuable as any bamboo
rod! Several decades of experience can reveal knowledge or trends in weather patterns, emergence schedules or ecological changes. Because time has a way of altering the facts; and fisherman tend to "exaggerate" some tales I've decided to post an on-line log of my fly fishing travails. Here's My Pledge... I'll promise not to reveal any "secret" spots. I'll also try to protect the "innocent". Unless otherwise granted the use of last or maiden names shall be excluded. The rules are really rather simple and can be adjusted at any time based on the whims of the narrator. Your comments aren't necessary but may be published if they're deemed verifiable! If it serves a purpose then plagiarism may be employed as a means of forwarding knowledge or teaching an otherwise worthy lesson.
