In the "pissing in the river" thread, someone mentioned adult diapers. This made me chuckle. If the current PP group is still posting in 30 years, will we see topics like:

-Best adult diapers for fishing all day

or maybe:

-New wheel chair mount for rod holder

how about:

POLY-GRIP: better than power bait?

or

ALZHEIMERS: get that "first fish" thrill everytime!

Slab... Don't forget "Which hook is best??"
odds are this will come up....

mabye all of YOU will be in diapers and wheel chairs but not me hehehehehehehe
Tyler

Tyler will be in JAIL! Too many speeding tickets!

Good topic Slab! And good comeback to Tyler, G-M! hehehe ...

Other possible 2030 topics:

- Was anyone there to hear 'Yall's last words of "Hey, watch this"?
- RT, how in the world can you still do that in 2030?!? Simply amazing.
- Wow! Nice limit .... of bass.
- So, how do you guys like the new GLoomis 'Crystal Quartz Resin' Ti 2143c? (I can't even see the dam tip of it out there without my bi-focals)
- What happened to all those snaggers of the early 2000's? ...

Some of these guys have been fishing longer then you have been out of diapers

The REEL use for preparation H.

Somebody ought to start thinking about a river/run retirement home franchise. There should be big money in it by 2030. Think of it, a big lodge type facility, overlooking a northwest river with wheelchair and walker access to great fishing spots. Biggest "way it used to be" liar contest right after the evening meal in the "trophy room". Favorite oldies and latest fishing movies, videos and DVD's twice a week. Fly tying classes with full face magnafiers, everything tied up on size 6-0 hooks! "Improve your spoon eating" classes. How to get the best results using a shriveled pink worm.
Activities and contest's like who can get into their waders the fastest, or put a rod, reel, line and terminal set-up together the quickest and actually have it work!
Visit's from the 2002 "Women in Waders" calendar models signing autographs of their original photos!
Tour bus trips to the outdoor shows.
There could be a whole chain of these places on west and east coast rivers, so you could transfer around and try different locations, whenever a bed suddenly became available!
The motto could be "Old fishermen never die, they just smell that way!"

More 2030 topics:
-Trout farms with the best senior rates...
-Fishing and prune juice...
-Best walkers for wading...
-Tipping your fishing caddy, what's fair?
-Good, cheap dental work, liposuction, cataract correction, hair line restoration, liver spot eradication, hip/knee replacement and fish the Vedder...

Some 2030 predictions:
-The Wild Smelt Coalition will call for a statewide catch and release season on unmarked smelt. The WDFW will argue that the present one fish limit offers adequate protection.
-The Committee for Politically Correct Fish Names will lobby to have the common sucker renamed the buglemouth bass. This will dramatically increase the number of bassholes found in the NW.
-RT will write a column for STS with information on what to do when you've "bonked" your hand, how to tie a steelie slammin' streamer with blue and silver hairs plucked from your wife's head, and how to cast the new Loomis two-man spey rod. He will also reveal another river clearing secret utilizing a leading brand laxative, dark beer, and bad chicken salad. His column will be controversial!
-Opinions will still be worth two cents

Don't forget...floatilla...8 (thousand)...let the trash mumbling begin.

Packing heat in 2030 will consist of Ultra strength Bengay and propane heater

Just tried the Ultimate Egg Cure that they have been raving about...man was it worth the wait!!

Damn this is too funny!!!! You guys crack me up...

Bob's Marriage Proposal to Fishgal

Ryan,

You will need few more speeding tickets and maybe couple of mistresses before you can qualify for the top job

If current trends continue, we might see topics like:

-Entire Puget Sound declared a marine sanctuary - tribal fishing only

-Last steelhead hatchery slated for closure

-Bob Ball moving permanently to Soldotna

But then again, we might turn things around:

-State trades city of Puyallup to tribes in exchange for fishing rights

-60 pound king caught "fishing from window" of Edgewater

-Year-round chinook fishing returns to Puget Sound
