Rookies a.k.a. F.N.G's

Took our buddy Derek out today for his first ever Fly Fishin' experience. I gave him some lessons, also some basics of fishing on a boat, some excitement yelling and landed him fish.  He now will be hooked on our world. His next lesson will be, how to handle a fish; notice the death grip, and awkward stance...

Stay tuned for Saturday, Binky (my brother) is next up...
Wicket landed some nice fish too (check out his blog Anglers Path), but this post was to discuss F'n New Guys.  Anyone else have a good F.N.G. story?

Yeah I took a new guy out recently that said he wasn't real good swimmer..

No worries, here you go, put this Auto PFD on and if you fall in it will inflate and I can haul you out of the drink and we both live...He put's it on and about two minutes later, for reasons only he knows, he pulled the damn cord and just about busted his teeth out when it went off. Scared the shit out of both of us.
