I get a lot of questions on the river and at shows and here on this site, and now I need to ask all of you a question. There’s an old fly fishing joke about two anglers. One is all into latin names and esoteric dry fly types and tells the other angler about his efforts trying to match the hatch. The punch line is that the other angler tells him he caught all his fish on “this little grey bastard”. I’m looking for the specific telling of the joke. I know I’ve seen it online, but I can’t find it. Anyone know it by heart, or have an online reference?

there’s a similar story written in Joe humphreys’s Trout Tactics, in one of his chapters?

That’s in the ballpark, but not specific enough. I think Mike Carl (above) has the best reference so far. I appreciate you reaching out! Tightest of lines, good sir. 🙂
