It looks like ol' trout’s nut is on another crusade (you want to play the personal attack game? I’m down(remember I’m just an immature teenager)) ... The centuries old battle between the young and the old will never end, and that is one of the many reasons I love this sport; our common breaks down the barrier between generations. Once the barrier is gone the younger generation can learn from the mistakes of the older generations. Here is a list of mistakes I’ve noticed that I have definitely learned from
1. Loving steelhead while living in Arizona
Moral: Don’t live in Arizona, but hey at least the craziest of Arizonians fish more than allot of folks that lurk around bitterly wishing they remembered what it was like to touch a fish… or a woman (or man… I’m not sure of everyone’s’ preferences, so I won’t discriminate)
2. Bragging about how poor of a caster you can be and still catch fish.
Moral: It is obvious to me that being a good caster won’t hurt your odds, so why not do it well? It can only help your chances. I know it has helped me catch fish that other people wouldn’t have ever had a chance to catch.
3. Bragging about how much better you are because you’re older than someone.
Moral: This only makes people wish you would hurry up and kick the bucket, and well I want to be liked when I die. I don’t want to find burning bags of dog dookie on my porch every Friday night.
4. Getting fat.
Moral: I can’t control time, my age is the slave of the seasons, but I can control how many hotdogs I try to shove down my throat at the same time.
5. Being Jealous
Moral: Don’t be bitter towards others because they have what you want, i.e. once I’m
old I can’t take someone else’s youth, so I should enjoy it while I can.
6. Being better than everyone else.
Moral: they will probably amount to more than I ever did, and maybe they’ll lead a happy and meaningful life.
Trout’s nut you should really consider going fishing, or continue pathetically sitting at home arguing with teenagers that actually live how so many others wish they could; Fish a few days a week free of all worries that the "holier than thous" are plagued with. At least I enjoy life, I’m not sure how many of you can say the same.
That’s all I have to say, not that it matters I’m too young to have a brain. I should really go to sleep... late night with the gf.

PS I generally get along with older folks, and I’m sorry if I offended those of you who don’t deserve this, but for some it is necessary. Once again I'm sorry if this offends you
PSS I hope I die before I get old – Peter Townsend (well atleast before I become bitter)
Rant complete
You've said what you had to say, and I said what i had to say. can we move on now?
