    Default Lost my fly bag....to a bear

    Seriously. Well I woke up this morning to see glass all over the ground and my door bent. And low and behold a bear broke into my car. WHy couldnt he just open the car door like he did last time? He climbed in all the way to the back of my wagon...over the mtn bikes and took out my fly bag Took my nymph box, dry box and my streamer box...all my tippet and my clamps my licenses etc. What a dickhead! How am I supposed to fish? I cant replace all those at once. A bear doesnt need flies to fish! But I do. Just thought I would vent a little. Thanks for listening.

    F@#k you bear!

    Yours truly,

    Morgan

    Indeed, using any mammal as bait is forbidden by regulation.

    He wasn't baiting, he was using lures. Wonder if that bear got several owies in his tongue??
