TALL TALES<br />
YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY!<br />
Heard that one before? Given a few beers, almost any red-blooded<br />
American hunter or fisherman can and will expound at great<br />
length their triumphant successes and conversely, relate heartbreaking<br />
stories of that near miss, that terrible loss or that blown opportunity.<br />
Sometimes when they’re told and retold, the antagonists in these yarns<br />
can attain near mythological proportions! Whether tragic or heroic, all<br />
story-telling sportsmen seem to possess a flair for subtle exaggeration.<br />
Others not so much! Some might say we come by this talent naturally<br />
as American folklore is filled with bigger than life characters achieving<br />
the seemingly impossible. Think Paul Bunyan and Pecos Bill! Why let<br />
the truth get in the way of a good story?<br />
