Photo By: Louis Cahill - (Anglers: Dave Grossman, Kent Klewein, Bruce Wayne)
I wasn’t planning on doing another caption contest for at least another month, but when you get the perfect photo, you just have to say, “What the Hell”. For a little background information on this photo, it took place on the South Holston River in East. Tennessee last month. Fishing was surreal during the morning hours, but it got really ugly once the sun got high, so ugly in fact, Louis even turned to the bottle. Knowing that the only sure thing was for us all to catch a good buzz, we unanimously put down our fly rods and turned up our drinks.
Give us your best caption for this photo…..
and if yours is picked….
I’ll be mailing you a Redington Delta 5/6 Reel brand new in the box. Retails for $199.95.
Contest entries closes midnight on Sunday, July 1, 2012. One entry per person.
Keep it Reel,

Ok, last one to shotgun his beer, has to fish with Louis for the rest of the trip! Ready, set, go!
The art of stealing a beer from your buddy is not easily learned.
Ad for MADD (mother’s against drinking and drifting)
Not wanting to risk another rowing-under-the-influence citation, after their third beer the guys decided they’d have to push their boats all the way back upstream to the launch.
The most interesting fishermen in the world….They always fish, but when they don’t, They drink Dos Equis.
Stay fishing my friends.
If you drink a bottle of liquid Fish Attractant before you pee into the river you’re about to fish, you might be a redneck.
Attitude adjustment formula: SoHo + didymo + slow = libation.
New Meaning to “Drunken Fish”
While the dudes are away, the guides will play.
No fish at the bottom of this beer either….better keep lookin’
36oz/CFS!
Loser gets the big guy…..
River Report: 11:30 a.m., very hot…still “chugging” along…recent research has indicated that 3 out of 5 anglers prefer the artificial cold flows today.
Guys fishing: “It’s bad enough that they already out-fished us, but now they are out-drinking us!”
SoHo and SoCo
(coming from the man in the back, 4th from left)- Those guys think they are so cool; showing off their boats, drinking canned craft beer,probably have Yeti Coolers too…….One day I will be that cool.
What, You have got to be kidding me. No one told me there would be a beer chugging contest.
The three angler’s decision to dirnk once everytime they saw a tenkara rod, twice every time they heard “tight lines,” and three times whenever they saw a gopro proved to be a treacherous decision as shown by the police report the next day. The local community is now reminding all anglers that clothing is NOT optional when wade fishing. School guidance counselors are available for any students who may have witnessed the horror that unfolded after this picture was taken.
** “dirnk” should clearly be “drink.” Let me clarify by saying that I am not currently dirnking nor am I durnk 🙂
A recent study shows that 2 out of 5 anglers are arrogant bastards that believe they are fly fishing’s purists and so “above” all other anglers that they can’t even enjoy a tastey alcoholic beverage while out on the water…. poor shmucks 😉
That next run looks super skinny, guess we oughta lighten the load eh!
The three wise men just going with the flow.
Maybe we shouldn’t have thrown the client overboard, he had the Jack. Beer for now boys… with any luck his pack will get here before him.
Quick boys its a six pack so that’s two each
Two fisherman, Three pussy’s!!!
Let’s just chug beers until we get past these guys, I’m not in the mood for friendly conversation.
ha. I like this one 🙂
Holy trout “Batman”! The “Joker” came and left only the beer.
Though not mentioned in any how-to guides, synchronized drift drinking remains a challenging and rewarding part of the sport.
It’s 5 o’clock somewhere….
The only thing batman is catching these days is a hangover.
Excellent idea. As long as we keep pouring the Makers in these empty beer cans none of the locals will give us sh!t for drinking Kentucky burbon in Tennesse.
*bourbon. Maybe I shouldn’t hit the bottle so early…
Bourbon and or whiskey no matter the make is always good no matter the day nor time. Just like fishing.
There are only two things better than fishing… and only one of them can be done with guys around.
Just another day at the office…
This is a clear safety meeting, because drifting and drinking is the only responsible way to fish.
Too much beer, not enough patience.
These guys are so good they can catch one out of a bottle of beer.
One more for the river boys!
Opening day at the U.S. Olympic trial for Synchronised Beer Drinking.
Last one done has to fish with 7X.
Louis: “Ha! I just pissed in someone’s beer bottle! Gotta get this!”
Real men wet wade.
Gierach’s right. And this is the only option when “those other assholes” are in your hole.
Picked the wrong day to give up whiskey.
Guides three clients zero!
