Handshake exchanged between Ed and Yarndog
I showed up at the river about 10:00am this morning and began to fill my bag of garbage. I left my backpack down river and fished a hole above where I ususally fish. Minutes later I saw two guys walk through the trees with garbage bags and picking up every thing the eye could see. I slowly walked down to where they were. Ed turned around and saw me. We both knew what had to happen next. We said our names and shaked hands and put it behide us.
Ed I can see you are a good man and meant no malice towards me. You had an opinion and you stated it. I do respect your passsion about fishing as much as mine. I do love to share this passion with others. But becuase of this hand shake between us I will, in the furture respect your thoughts on taking pictures of this spot. I will look for a different background. I do this for the lurkers though. If some one from Ifish PM's me and asks where I was I will tell them and may even join then down there to fish and talk. I hope your float down was safe!!

Wow?!!!
That was easy!!
We had a great day at the Sandy cleanup!
Thankyou, Yarndog.
It was kinda weird, I just knew when we saw each other everything would be cool!!! Thanks for picking up the garbage.

Re: Handshake exchanged between Ed and Yarndog
Well done.
Yarndog, it was good to meet you this morning.
I spent the day with Ed and I can vouch that he's a good guy for sure and knows the area very well.

Re: Handshake exchanged between Ed and Yarndog
What you both accomplished by "eating a little crow" and both taking the high road should inspire all of us.
AFTER ALL.."EATING A LITTLE CROW IS BETTER THAN NOT EATING AT ALL"
BRAVO!
