Well "Missoura" Made an Appearance on a Blog Recently
I don't know if I should be mad at the author for making us look like hicks or thank him for driving folks away from coming to "Missoura". I also found this article humorous because this almost happened to me and a few of my buddies about a year ago. I would like to know your opinion in the comments section below though!

Well I'm sorry to hear that "Moldy Chum" and his father didn't find the perfect trout experience at Eleven Point River. As for cancer conscious sun wear not being in vogue here in Missoura, we just might be a little behind the fishing fashion scene. This past year I've just starting to see more of the sunscreen bandanas being worn. Personally my idea of sun wear is a hat and SPF 50 Coppertone.
ReplyDeleteI'm also sorry to hear that Chum and his dad lost some pretty expensive equipment. Even with my low budget fly rod and rented chest waders I will still have them netted down in my canoe to be prepared for the inevitable spill.
Since Chum's blog entry was written July 11th, I can assume his trip was near the 4th of July. I avoid all lakes and streams a week before and after that date just because of the influx of "Keystone aficionados" and soon to be ex-bachelors performing field surgery on each other.
Speaking of drunken men doing extreme things to each other...you can probably find a "Deliverance" experience closer to Chums hometown of Memphis at the Pumping Station Bar so the movie reference just doesn't work as a description of southern Missoura.
I will represent the norm of Missouri polite fishing society though and extend a heartfelt apology for the witty shade being thrown. But Chum ol Chum the rest is on you. Poor planning on your part doesn't make a trout fishing experience bad for others at Eleven Point. From your own words this was your second "fishing trip with my pops that also featured a prolific tube hatch of Keystone aficionados".....
