I suppose a lot of you already know this, but the sign of a good angler is not merely his or her ability to catch fish. Anyone can do that. And any five-year-old with a Mickey Mouse rod and reel can do it even better.
The sign of a good angler is that he or she knows how to dress throughout the angling season. Whether sashaying down a dock or taking a restful Sunday stroll into a new bait shop, the mark of a true angler is knowing how to work their look.
You need to have a style that turns heads and makes people think, “Now there goes a carp fisherman!”
