Honestly- I browsed both sites before entering one. I chose this one because if I'm gonna get my "ass chewed" I'd rather it be by a bunch of carp/catfish catching, blue collar fishermen, than the high end/uppity comes out of an Orvis catalog asshole that thinks everything has to be done in sucha-and-such manner-
I believe I fish/tie flies to a UONTF stardard, but I can't stand the attitudes on their website. I'm completely self taught in both fly tying, on fishing (other than watching friends that are more talented in both)- some folks believe if you've nev er had a lesson, you can't do it right.....more UTOTF, than here.
I hope I don't, have never meant to sound degraging in any of my posts on here-ive only wanted to help TROUT fishermen/women in their pursuit. I DO NOT care about any other type of flyfishing, but IF that's what gets you wet-do it!
Oh, and honestly I don't really care for this site either...
Edit- because I said this I don't give a chit about this site, I feel I need to tell you why- when I joined this site, I posted a few pictures of some nice trout that we caught. I didn't think too much about the background, and then within a week or two, we fished rthe same section of river, and it was as if the "Bud Light Brigade" had been there....empty beer cans all over the place. Now I get it, "how can I trace the ton of empty beer cans to a picture I posted...well in 3 years of fishing that section before I posted a picture-zero beer cans, after pics posted, beer cans line it. UTOTF guys Wouldn't do that! BFT guys woud...you'll never see another pic of my fishing trips in utah!
