Guest Sundancefisher Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 To all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I hope everyone gets a healthy happy family for Christmas as well as a few fishing toys! Here is a Christmas fishing poem. Cheers! Sun Twas the day before christmas and all through the state The salmon and steelhead were getting ready to mate And down by the river where salmonids run All the fisherman were getting ready for fun I dreamed of my truck with fifty rods in the bed And of millions of salmon making their redds But when I got to the river what did I see Fifty million gear chuckers slinging buzz bombs at me So I tried to be kind and courteous to all And waded down to spot trying not to fall I peered down in the water and tried to make out Any shape that looked fishy that I could take out On my first back cast my fly got caught in a tree And I had to climb up to get it free When I returned to my spot what did I see Not one, but three guys grinning at me So I got in my car a drove away from there To a secret spot that no one would dare I hiked over hill and down a steep cliff hoping that I wouldn't fall or slip The river was peaceful and solice was mine as I strung up my rod for n'th time When around came the bend a guided jet boat Which stopped in the spot my fly was going to float I cried in despair, this just isn't fair As I reached up and pulled out all of my hair In anger I broke my rod down to the wire Got home, still mad, I fed it to the fire But thank god that it's christmas cause what do I see A sage 8 wt XP waiting for me I thought to myself as I unwrapped the package Of all of the salmon that this baby would manage So happy christmas to you and a happy new year And may you all get a ton of new fishing gear Happy Holidays! http://www.washingtonflyfishing.com/board/...-Christmas-Poem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
