Caption Contest: Write the Best, Win a Book
By Tim Romano
It's been quite some time since we've run any kind of caption contest, so here you are. You should know the deal by now - write the best caption win a prize.
I took this image at a friends low key wedding last Saturday. So keep it clean and friendly...
The groom literally rolled up his pants after the ceremony waded shin deep, threw a hero cast across the river and stuck a gorgeous brown on a grasshopper. No joke. There was a lot of cheering.
The winner will receive a copy of Chris Santella's Fifty Places to Fly Fish Before You Die. The book has been around for a couple of years but never seems to get old. In it he interviews 50 of the sport's experts, asking them to describe one of their favorite places to fish on earth and why. Look for Fifty More Places to Fly Fish Before you Die soon.

this young man found the girl of his dreams and she will land the fish for him
You won't be needing this anymore....
this man netted a fish of a lifetime
bride-"i'm finally got him in the net" groom- "fishing honeymoon?! you are the best!"
Give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he will eat for a lifetime. Marry a man and he will never fish again...
Fly fishing vest: $ 75
Net: $45
Marrying a woman who will let you fish on your wedding day: Priceless.
That looks like the walking bridge over the river at seneca rocks, wv...i have no caption
Gotta land him slowly...
Yep . . . it's a keeper.
Fine...One more cast, then you hand over the Rod too.
Despite being unable to figure out how to put them on, Becky kept her promise to include fishnets in her wedding ensemble...
I'll give you your net back, just as long as you give me one kiss.
Yep, my guess is Seneca Rocks.
"I know he keeps his wallet here somewhere..."
Joe was none the wiser while his fishing equipment disappeared one piece at a time.
Sweetie, This fish ain't no catch-n-release.
That dress would make some good material for a fly!
seriouly honey, I'm going to need that net.
well, just this one time he won't be practicing catch and release.
Four out of five bridesmaids prefer The Bouquet-O-Matic 2000!
This tennis racquet sucks. What a stupid wedding gift.
Do you, John, take this trout, to have, and to hold, photograph, and release, in marriage and in health, so help you God?
I do
And will you, Jane, Give John back his net?..
...to match the fishnet stockings. What a catch!
Last day the wife pretended to like fishing.
Now go catch us a meal for the reception!
Maybe if I kiss this frog....
Always have a landing net handy so your best catches don't get away.
Dad always said you find a woman that likes to fish as much as you, put a ring on her finger and a net in her hand.
After being stood up at the alter twice previously due to the wedding coinciding with a hatch, this bride cleverly duped her unsuspecting victim to a river with the promise of fish only to reveal a minister and cake when he arrived. Stay on your toes boys, the women these days are getting wiley.
"Been married 2 minutes, and already my fishing stuff is disappearing"!
"What a catch!"
Was that too simple and obvious? OK going to the dark side...
"I hope we never have to tell them that there are 'more browns in the stream'."

No more posts needed! I vote mnobles23 Wins! You know he's right!
Look! I caught a tax rebate!!!
"He's strong, reliable, easy to handle and makes me feel secure. But enough about 'Netty.' And my husband? Oh, he's great too."
Better than a rolling pin...
The bonds of marriage were made more secure with the use of a palomar knot.
The catch of a lifetime.... ohh and the wedding was nice too
'True Love'
Too many good ones already, but is that a TU logo tatooed on her back?
end of the story and end of his fishing
Okay gals, this will come in a lot handier than a bouquet for catching your man.
TR - I just have to ask, did she throw the net instead of a bouquet?
Fin finale.
A much better accessory than the fake cheap Coach, Prada, etc. handbags that miu miu keeps writing in his cryptic caption contest entries!
If his hand had been in the right place, he never would have lost his net.
"and she made sure he wouldn't be the one that got away"
So when the priest said death do you part he meant his fishing pole.
"I wouldn't get caught at my own wedding if the fish are biting."
...Yes sir, I realize this is a catch and release section, but I really want to keep this one.
The fact that she thinks she can fit her new husband in his own fishing net shows how much wiggle room he really has the rest of his life.
Catch of the day
With her fingers crossed behind his back, she vowed to do all of the housework and net all of his fish.
YOU MIGHT BE A REDNECK IF YOU WEAR YOUR FLYFISHING VEST TO YOUR WEDDING.
YOU MIGHT BE A REDNECK IF YOUR BRIDES BOUQUET IS A FISHING NET.
"I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs. Jones, you may now net his fish.... er, Kiss the bride."
"He caught the fish and the girl"!
If he's catching beauties like that, I need to know where this river is!
She's doesn't use a vice grip, she keeps his set in a net.
You get the line. I'll get the net, we'll get married and our feet a little wet. We'll stay fishin till we get the hook set. For better or worse, for life.
hooked for life
In love...hook, line, and sinker.
The Catch of Her Life
And they fished happily ever after.
"Sure I'll net the fish honey but it better not get my dress wet"
Psst....hey....come here.....your fly's open.
hook, line, sinker rod reel and fishing boots! :D
Yup, she's a keeper. (you can tell by the tattoo and the net)
The couple that fishes together stays together
He didn't let that one get away!
The strongest knot in fishing.
You get the net when I get the ring, now keep moving!
you can fish once we kiss
I'll steal one from Maclean:
Poets talk about "spots of time," but it is really fishermen who experience eternity compressed into a moment.
The catch of a lifetime
Ok, I got his landing net. Now if I can just reach his wallet we'll get this marriage off to a proper start.
Honey, I think my "Autumn Splendor" is caught in your hair...
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here together to bloodknot these two anglers in holy matrimony (she's gotta be an angler! who else would let their spouse do photos in a flyvest and flyrod??). They have each cast into the riffle of life, and set their hooks in a trophy catch! What the Great Angler has tied, let no snag, obstruction or other angler, part!"
The catch you will remember for the rest of your life.
And after she let him go fishing they lived happily ever after, The End.
I told you I was a fisher of men!
This one is a keep her ...
Finally the kiss! Race you to the river!
"You get a line and I'll get a pole, honey, honey..
You get a line and I'll get a pole, baby, baby...
You get a line and I'll get a pole, and we'll go down to the fishing hole, honey oh baby, of mine"
(I always wondered what that cadence meant!)
If you think talking her into the photo was hard, you should have seen how difficult it was to find a tiny little landing net and a tiny little vest for the couple on top of the cake!
how she snag him
how did she snag him
Catch of a lifetime, with the pictures to prove it.
A match made in Heaven!
This wedding has been brought to you by "ORVIS" makers of "The Ultimate Cinch Tool Knot Tyer."

One of the luckiest men alive.
