That’s because my Poppa suggested I save one vice for my golden years. I tried to do them all at once and failed – his counsel was to take them on in serial – rather than parallel.

Singlebarbed has plenty of bad habits, but heavy boozin’ ain’t one of ‘em.

And so THAT’S why Singlebarbed refuses to share his CamelBak on our outings and becomes happier as he hydrates.

Makes you wonder if the fellow who invented the CamelBak was an alcoholic fly fisherman.

It’s funny, but fly fishing is the only form of fishing I’ve ever seen that doesn’t lend itself to spirits.

Must be something about setting the rod down – as that’s the only thing we never do. With only one free hand, and that occupied by the obligatory cheap cigar – it’s sobriety at its finest.

I suppose some need an excuse before they’ll indulge in extreme drinking, and spending the night fishing off a rock is as good as any.

My propensity for extreme hangovers is less frequent than it used to be, primarily because I’ve developed a tolerance for cheap liquor. My drinking buddies used to rib me about my pedestrian tastes, but with the economy going south, my guess is they’ll soon be drinking off the bottom shelf as well. Whether their stomachs will be up to the task remains to be seen.

Some of us never grow up.
