I can think and fish but I can not row, fin, steer and fish very well at the same time.
Found that out on the lower part of the Gunnison River and re-inforced it on the Rio Grande this last week.
It was comical watching me. Ya shudda ben there. I think I scrapped my fly rod tip on three bridge pylons at three different bridges. Bending the rod substantially in the process.
Then there were the numerous trees I got my fly rod mixed up in. Followed by my fly line and flies.
There also was the jetty I had to try to avoid while I had a fish still hooked in the net with fly line wrapped around both flippers, the pontoons and the oar handles and twisted around the fly rod,reel and itself.
This while your buddy is trying to help you out by telling you to looked out for the 10 foot drop ( nonexistant ) at the end of the jetty.
Finally there was the tree overhanging the river at the take out that I ran into. My buddies had to pull me and my pontoon boat out of it.
It was very comical as long as you were not me at that moment in time.
