hats off to the older generation

[new guy]

just came back from waterbury resvoir.not an exciting day to say the least.but as i was loading my car an older guy approached me and asked how the fishing was.i said it sucked....again.we got talking about smelt, a fish i am just now trying to catch this season.this guy offered to take me to his spot....and we all know how sacred a specific zone can be, and even gave me pointers on how to catch them.thats BIG,and hats off to any older veteran fisherman that offers tips and locations to those of us just starting out.days and weeks can be spent finding holes that have fish, and the 10 minutes spent talking to this guy made up for the last 3 days of crappy fishing.thanks

I agree, shared a nice time with couple of folks there on Sunday and did well set up right near eachother and both landed trout.  Love the comradery found on the ice.  J
