I'm not being a smart A but I do have an honest questions do you all think there would be a separation between fly fishers and other if fly fishers used sent.
My opinion is that fly-fishing is a separate state of mind; it’s not just in equipment. I don’t have anything against people using sent on their flies. I wouldn’t consider them a fly fisher however.
Just to make myself clearer, I’m not saying that someone who bait fishes, spin fishes, ice fishes, or what ever isn’t a fly fisher, we all were different hats at different times. Fly-fishing to me is matching your wits against a fish on a fundamental basis. True fly fishers at the highest level have designed their own flies and caught fish on them.
I’ve not gotten to that level yet myself
