The first quarter mile of water put a bleak outlook on the remaining 9 house of river ahead of us , not a single chase through some of the higher quality water on this stretch ! ! My invited guest on board had no experience throwing a heavy awkward tandem streamer rig , and was fairly discouraged after nearly throwing his shoulder out with only a handful of well - placed casts . I always talk of the exciting chases , but now ; he must think I am full of it . I now know the frustration that guides must endure while watching miles of quality water go by without a singe well placed or completely untouched .

Question: What may be the reason he is thinking they are " full of it " ?
Answer: Because they knew this was ridiculous to begin with .Because they are known to lie about things .Because they know they over exaggerated .Because all of the talk of adventure and nothing is happening now .
