This issue's Master of the meander, meandered furthur than normal. By the end of the article Seth was angling for his dog with an 11wt rod, because there no tarpon in California. I wrote a letter to the editors saying: Thanks Seth for the great article on dog angling. Being new to the sport, I have a few questions: 1. If I fly fish for dog using an indicator will the purist dry fly dog anglers look down on me? 2. Do you know of any easy to tie cat patterns? 3. If I see two dogs mating, is it ethical to fish for them? And if so, which dog do I cast to? 4. Can I use the dog'd tail lenght when bragging to my friends about the size dog I catch? 5. Skunk angling! What's up with that? Its disgusting, am I right? I could have asked a few more questions that would have made it difficult to get my letter printed. So for old times sakes, I'll ask you: If I try to land a dog on a 3wt rod, will I kill it? Mike Borba
