mikechell 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 Sorry, I have no idea what that is supposed to be. I'll assume that it's something for trout or steelhead. It looks like a miniature plastic brillo pad. Is it an egg sack? I am not trying to be funny, I really don't know what you've tied. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

netabrookie 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2012 I just noticed this and don't mean to sound like an a-hole, but i have had seen a couple friends get hooked on the stuff (crap) and watched their life get totally destroyed. i just cant bring myself to tie a patten referring to meth or crack, but on the other hand i would proubly try a pattern referring to mary jane, since it just seems to make you mellow and munch on anything within reach...well, i mean...it used too...i don't mean to offend anyone, and besides, i don't get to fish for steel anyway.

Bruce Derington 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2012 To each their own, call it a crystal sucker spawn. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff. It can be a very effective pattern and every time I go to Erie fishery I take along some crystal meth, never leave home without it , LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netabrookie 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2012 I am just curious Mr Derington, do you get any sleep that week??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flytyer56 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2012 The name is what the originator called it! We didn't name it. All though I will admit it is a bad choice for a name considering what the stuff does to people. But it does catch a lot of steelhead! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
netabrookie 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2012 I shouldn't have joked with Bruce Derington about not sleeping when he wrote that he always has some with him. I have worked around a few people using the stuff and they are so far out there they hardly comprehend what you are saying to them. One fellow that I used to really like got on it and is proud of his "tours" as he called them, not sleeping for days or weeks. His longest "tour" was 24 days with no sleep and only drinking Mt. Dew. He was healthy when I met him 20 or so years ago, but only weighs a little over a hundred pounds now. But, as was mentioned before by a wiser man than myself, to each his own....

hopperfisher 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2012 Everyone, at least in the US, has been affected by meth in some way, shape or form. It's a choice that the user made. I'm sure that the originator meant no harm, likewise nor did the person who posted this thread. Everybody just RELAX and stop taking stuff so personally.
