The fisherman has the reel on top of the rod. A baitcaster reel is supposed , vs traditional fly-rod/reel combo.
Too the way rod is held ..good luck paying out line . Line is rather than being mended and stacked/placed in front of the fisherman , looped around behind his elbow ,or behind him completely, too. Not going to be able to feed line that way.

Nothing. Casting rod, lure, fish. Plenty of signs on opposite side of highway.:occasion14:

I saw a little blurb about that in the paper the other day. They wanted to promote their area's fly fishing for trout. That ain't a trout and that ain't a fly fisherman, neither.

The Bitterroot is known for trout fishing, and the fishermen there don't have a sense of humor. It's just amazing how that sign ever got through. :laughing7:

Yeah - looks like he's trout fishing and a big Ole Large Mouth is hitting his plug (which is missing the rear treble hook)! :laughing7:

Apparently they didn't include an actual local fisherman in the design process. Just as well, because if I was a local fisherman, I don't know as to how I would care to promote my fishing area as a tourist attraction.

It's certainly a fly rod. However, I would never be able to work a plug on a fly rod (and I'm guessing no one else would be able to either). Largemouth may not be the fish of choice at that location, but I've caught plenty of Largemouth on my fly rod! :fish:
