Thats for sure. But it helps if he pulls the fish out of a brush pile like it was a dog on a leash...;)

Posts: 3233		Woof woof. Teamwork always helps. And there are few, if any, who know every fish, brushpile, and current of that stream better than Eric does. So Bruce's giving Eric all the credit makes some sense, but not everyone would benefit from his help equally. Bruce's own skill most likely played an important part, as modest as he is. Finally, let's not discount the good juju the Santa hat may have provided.

Posts: 437		Yes, but my hat was too cool, right?

Do you think it makes my butt look big?
