Hey, I didn't take it that way at all. And yeah, if these guys are still around, word will get to the right ears.
Picture this:
Saturday AM, 30-40 paylakers standing in the shack, ready to go-----and Bubba yells out---Hey Hill---You're a low life tackle thief.
Jimmy say---What?? What the heck are you talking about??
Bubba say--he seez----You're a freakin low life thief---I know 'cause I read it on the Innerdnet.
It could very well happen just like dat.
My guess is that these clowns are just a couple of paylake wannabes. Fished a few times, thought they we're good---drove across the country to show off--and got spanked.
Just the fact that they showed up without the "required" gear tells me that they were clueless.
There's a good chance that they have lurked on this board-----so maybe they'll read this, before Bubba embarasses them at a paylake.
