| Mike from the show Mike and Molly was going muskie fishing with his friends. Sounded really great at first. Muskies!! Cool!! And then it went downhill and fast. In Lake Geneva. From the shore. With spinning gear and bobbers. Did I mention that Mike said that they would catch more muskies than they could count. Like I said… really?? |

| Hey, our club spent a lot of money stocking muskies in Lake Geneva. One would hope that reasonable size limits have been imposed before stuff like this gets out of hand!

They looked like little girls fishin' for panfish out there. |

| One thing I love from tv commercials, shows, and movies is when they have somebody fishing with a spinning reel upside down. Always gets a chuckle. Especially, when their character is supposed to be some big "outdoors-type". I know there are a few people out there that actually fish that way, but it is certainly not the norm. |

| Oh I'll have to watch for that now! So, you can really fish with it upside-down? Isn't that mildly uncomfortable? |

| Not if you enjoy reeling backwards!
And what was that episode of CSI tonight - the scene with what's-her-name fishing with her father?? I have yet to see an ugly stick spinning combo whre the clicker engages while you are casting.
I get that it's TV, but isn't there a person on the set anywhere who has ever been fishing in their lives? |

I get that it's TV, but isn't there a person on the set anywhere who has ever been fishing in their lives? Apparently not. But how could that be?! Even people that don't like to fish have fished before. You have to remember something! And even if you don't, why the heck doesn't someone check? |
