<\/p>\n\u201cAh! Sir, we think alike. Effectively, fly fishing is to fishing what caviar is to lumpfish. What\u2019s more, I actually participate in the celebrated blog dedicated to this sport, it\u2019s called le MOUCHING.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dear sir, how delighted I am to learn that. Le MOUCHING is by far my preferred reading material. After the works of Freud, of course!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFreud? Are you a Freudian?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly, I am a psychiatrist. In fact I am compelled to tell you that in \u201cle MOUCHING\u201d, in my humble opinion, you are guilty of failing to talk about a baneful malady to which fly fishermen fall victim.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMalady, you say? Do you mean simple accidents, like planting a hook in your spinal cord?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, no\u2026 not at all!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen, it is about broken bones when falling from precipices.<\/p>\n
\u201cCertainly not!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell then, is it the brutal drownings that occur when our waders get brutally filled with water?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAbsolutely not. I am only talking about the maladies related to fly fishing of the psychiatric order.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI find that hard to believe dear fellow! There is nothing in the world of leisure activities more peaceful than fly fishing, of that I am fully convinced.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn that case I invite you to the clinic tomorrow morning where I am Head Doctor for \u201cthe May Fly Hysteria\u201d. It will be my pleasure to show you a few typical cases.\u201d![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lemouching.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Le-Mouching-fly-fishing-histoires-de-fous.jpg?resize=300%2C269&ssl=1\" "\\"Le")
<\/p>\n
And the next day, dear readers, you can be sure I was at the door of the establishment of my new friend; in his white coat he opened the door and took me by the arm to visit the clinic.<\/p>\n
In the first room I discovered a small group of individuals screaming in cadence: \u201cline number five, rod number eight!. They all showed their teeth like enraged dogs.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not so bad\u201d I whispered to the Doctor. If you care to, let us continue.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the second room the patients were tied to boards, white foam escaped their lips and they\u00a0 chanted in choir: \u201cNew Zealand, Cuba, Patagonie, New Zeland, Cuba, Patagonie\u2026\u201d and they continued in this manner.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese here are treated with electro-shock. The results, while positive are unfortunately quite mediocre. But let\u2019s continue on, follow me.\u201d![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lemouching.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Le-MOUCHING-Fly-fishing-asile.jpg?resize=400%2C210&ssl=1\" "\\"01_Il")
<\/p>\n
The third room was filled with individuals had an appearance barely human. An appalling odor that sickened me.<\/p>\n
The Doctor explained: \u201cAs you can smell, these poor buggers obstinately refuse to leave their waders, not night nor day, and they do their business in their waders. Unfortunately there is nothing that we can do to cure them. We shorten their sufference ( and ours!) using the method that we call: the \u201cKILL\u201d method.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s radical. But they don\u2019t suffer at all and their families can return to their normal lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
I left the clinic shortly after that, more than a little shaken, as you would be in my place.\u00a0 The visit was entirely instructive, if troubling. And even if a great number among you refuse to believe me, I feel obligated, to render these facts public.<\/p>\n
In small doses, fly fishing remains inoffensive. Today I am convinced that, in great doses, it is a danger to our fellow citizens.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lemouching.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Le-mouching-fly-fishing-mouches-de-merde.jpg?resize=750%2C861&ssl=1\" "\\"Le")
