Caption Contest: Write the Best... Win Gear
By Tim Romano

Yeah, I know. We haven't announced a winner for the last caption contest we ran a couple of weeks ago. There's just to many good captions. I tell you what... at the end of the week we'll announce both. This week and the previous contest winner. Whomever writes the best caption for this week's disgusted look on angler Roy Tanami being given water bottle full of scented soft-plastics will win a Simms G3 guide vest (large only). This vest is for the angler that brings everything. There are 22 pockets on this bad boy and it retails for $199.95.
When you're done giving us a caption head on over to the web piece I just finished. It's basically a beginners guide to fishing photography. Let me know what you think and if you have any specific questions. I'd be happy to try and answer them.

Were do we post the comments?
"You expect me to drink all of this for 20 bucks?"
"Does anyone have any water purification tablets?"
Forget the boxes of muppets... Roy's got the full cast of wallace and grommet in 32oz
Mr. Bill, meet Mr. Tanami
Gumby and Pokey... An adventure with FlyTalk
no wonder i am sick look at whats in the water
Honey, can you open this for me?
"I call this one the stink bomb"
"Earlier in the week, my wife and I argued about me going fishing. When I asked her to pack some Swedish Fish Candy for the trip, this is what I got"
"So you're saying I have to drink this if I want to catch fish today? I'll take my chances with the skunk, thank you very much."
"Faced with keeping himself or his Gulp! hydrated, Roy decided he wasn't that thirsty anyway..."
"This flavored water stuff has gotten pretty out of hand."
Time to bring out the illegal bait.
Now watch carefully, this is how you chum for bass.
I eat, sleep, and drink fishing.
I call this my bass bomb.
"My Dad told me that if I was going to have fun, I should bring rubbers. But, this seems a little excessive!"
GUMMY worms! I said I wouldn't go out on the water without my GUMMY WORMS! Geez. What's next? Rapala swedish fish???
Here's what I call a suicide.
You expect me to drink this before I go fishin'?
So much for Organic Water!
"...Gulp"

I thought I ordered bug juice, not Gulp.
This don't look like no bloody mary!
Where's the "Nutrition Facts?"
Now that's a high protien.
Why I flyfish ....
van Dam's reply when Tanami asked what it takes to become a bass pro.
I don't believe ANY amount of purification will work with the water here.
You get to be my taste-tester.
"This won't go so well with my tadpole sandwich!"
"Can you open this, the lid is stuck"
"Rookie fishing guides beware!"
"To catch a fish."
so many baits, so little water.
"Here see if this smells funny.?"
"I think this passed it's experation date!"
"...how am I supposed to match the hatch with this..."
"What do I look like, a brook trout?"
"You're sure you bought these at LLBean, right?"
"I hope these weigh the same as that gold idol in the cave, or we're all f&*ked"
"Deeter went to Baja and all I got was his stomach punp results"
"I don't care if they're considered a delicacy, I want some ketchup.
"This is why you never let the guide bring lunch"
"Damn, who backwashed?"
"I ain't ever been much of a believer in that climate change stuff but all I've got to say is touche planet earth...touche"
"Alright Roy, they say that in order to catch a fish, you gotta think, ugh... eat like one. Here, chug this and tell me where the fish are."
"Nothing more refreshing than Powerbait Sport."
Just add water ...
Roy temporarily balks before downing his protein shake.
I can eat those gummy worms in 5 bites.
Reguardless of the constant teasing and sabotoge to his equipment, Roy will not resort to such barbaric methods of fishing.
"Um....I think it may be time to change the filter in your purifier."
"Who got into my Jack Daniel's?"
-Rubber we don't need no stinking rubber
-Whoa! so that's what gulp looks like
-If orvis don't sell it I don't like it!
-Do these come in bright orange maribou with a conehead and a 3x long size 6 streamer hook?
"I tell you guys these female fish in heat strips make the best bait there is. Fish just can't leave them alone".
"Folks for just 3 easy monthly payments of $9.95 we'll send you this bottle of Banjer minnows"
To Del: That comment "eat those gummy worms" and that pic is TO MUCH LOL !
When i told you guys i eat sleep and breathe fishing, i wasn't being serious.
Tim, when I told you you had to drown soft plastics for early season bass, this isn't what I had in mind.
When some guys get down on their luck they turn to a different type of bottle.
I loves me some worms.
Take this bottle, but beware it carries a terrible curse.
Alright, who's the smart ass?
This came from your what?
So that's what happens to polycarbonate plastics when left out in the sun.
Dell one of my best friends bought those stupid Banjo Minnows... I had to laugh! How about "shaken not stirred" or "shake well before drinking" or "can you hand me a couple more of those water purification tablets"...
Thanks mom.
That sure spoiled.
"So you're telling me Ron Jeremy drank this too."
"This is one of the toughest of the 12 steps in our fly snob program, so it's normal if he starts shivering violently."
Are you sure that was the recipe for "sun tea"?
You need to take that fancy new water filter back to the store.
I told you them things breed like rabbits.
"The economy is tough, this is all I got."
"If your gonna spew...spew in this."
looks like "GULP" has done it again
aha! pickled worms..
I gotta quit drinkin.
The bullet hole in the jar of worms was enough to convince Roy that he was never fishing New Jersey again.
Uhh, I think I'm in the wrong boat!
Well...when the fish aren't biting, you can always eat your bait.
You're an Idiot Tim! We are Fly fisherman, not bass pros.
Is this really what it takes to get on fear factor!?
Hey Roy we decided that as your sponsors we needed a little more airtime, so next time the cameras are in the boat take a few bites like the bass.
My wife is fired! Last week it was the laundry and now I have to learn to do the dishes?
I would eat that for a Simms vest. 1 2 3 Go!
simple.................plastic sucks.
That's why the beer is in the cans!
As the old joke goes.
Everybody know's "worms" live in water, die in beer.
Moral of the story, DRINK BEER,and you won't have "worms" !
Who brought the Tequila?
I read in Field and Stream that you can save money by storing your worms in water bottles. Now someone tell me what the hell do I drink?
Fishin with a jar o' snot.
Dude, your mom packed our lunch again.
Roy almost lost it as he prepared to slip the secret ingredient into his famous "Gumbo Ala Mother-In-Law"
The worm in the bottom of the Cuervo bottle was a nice touch, but this is rediculous!
You really think that your toe jam collection is going to catch bass???
That'll be the last time I trust th' wife t' clean out the tackle box!
I don't care if Mike Iaconelli at them, I ain't doing it!
I don't care if Mike Iaconelli ate them, I ain't doing it!
And for my next trick, I will drop one vi.agra in to this bottle and make turn everything inside into hard plastic rapalas!
I didn't say anything when I found the hair in my stew but this... THIS is ridiculous!!
Time to change the water filter
Let's see "sham wow" pick THIS up!
That's the last time I go fishing with Andrew Zimmern and let him decide on lunch.
Roy couldn't wait for his terrible cold to pass.
Roy found himself wishing, and not for the first time, that Kirk would either go to the doctor or start remembering to bring his own water bottle.
"Fear Factor" the F&S Edition.
Next time I should pack my own lunch, or take my wife with me. Nah, I'll just pack my own lunch.
If you're going to put milkshakes in the Nalgene bottles you're going to have to get a little better at washing 'em out, OK?
Whooh, who do you think I am bloodly Bear Grilles?!?!
Last time, my loving wife Jane filled my water bottle with a few good stogies, when I asked her for a surprise this time, I got a bottle of plastics? Is she trying to tell me my casting stinks?
You know you're a moron when...
"GREAT GOBS OF GIGGLY WIGGLYS!"
Do you think these supplements will show up on the urine test?
better call the gulp guy, we've got an infestation on our hands!
Roy's fishing buddies from Boulder thought he would enjoy this smoothie on the way to the hole.
All I want for Father's Day is a stainless steel water jug.
I ordered the chicken in a can, not the bait in the bottle.
Brita was no match for the Jersey tap-water.
"what the he**?"
"I really need that purple brush-hog on the bottum..."
I asked the wife to pack a lunch and drink I guess I should've payed more attention when she said no to fishing today.
Always a fan of maximizing space, Dale thought this was the greatest idea until the smallies started biting on the orange ones.
I swear buddy, ... they're like cheese curls -- once you eat one you won't be able to stop!
Roy was horrified when he felt the Fly god's wrath upon him, turning his jar of bait into soft plastics.
mmm... my favorite drink on the water
I don't care if it is the NEW energy drink of the pros I"M NOT DRIKING IT!!
"We're gonna need a bigger SteriPEN"
Ever since these bottles were found to contain carcinogens, they can now be used as extra-portable tackle boxes......let's just hope fish don't get cancer!
Entomology was never my strong point
They said drinking out of these bottle's can give you cancer. To me it looks like it gives you worms!
OK Deeter, let me get this straight. If I drink this whole thing I get what?
Did they say to to bring in a urine sample or just a stool sample
"I bought all this with the money I save with Geico!"
saved* ^^^
Thinking to himself: -"im not eatin whatever bites on this..."
At least it's not a bottle full of cheese.
you want me to do WHAT with these , your kidding right ?
got all i need lets fish
( tv commercial )
GULP soft plastics, so good even the fishermen cant resist em!
See..I told you....just drop these little pills in water and boom.....instant baits
How long have you been fly fishing?
This looks like one of my morning after urine samples from college! What was her name???
These are the best night crawlers--straight from the Berkley Pit in Butte.
add bourbon and i'll drink it
Now how do I get that orange one out of there?
and the fish accually like the taste of these?
The man who is never short on lures!
I aint drinkin' that!
CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG
The OneUpper: You may have drank the worm at the bar last night, but "Watch This!"
You can win a prize:
Tell how many plastic baits are in the water bottle,the sizes,colors and brands of each one.
We better get Bozo's stool sample to the lab...
Thank you sir...may I have another!
Anyway, like I was sayin', worms is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, worm-kabobs, worm creole, worm gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple worms, lemon worms, coconut worms, pepper worms, worm soup, worm stew, worm salad, worm and potatoes, worm burger, worm sandwich. That- that's about it.
"Those who drink deeply from the Loving Cup invite the full range of challenges and experiences into their being."
worst tip ever.
yrs-
Evan!
Betcha can't eat just one?
So, you went to Bass Pro, stole a bunch of lures and put them in the Nalgene you stole from me. I can't believe you!
Hold this for a minute while I get a hook out of my other water bottle.
Go on. Try it. These new biodegradable worms don't taste that bad.
This is all for you. Happy Fathers' Day Dad.
1. I dont care if smilin bob drinks it!
2. after hours of not catching any fish we decided to play truth or dare.
3. well, you said women like guys who eat fish.
Don't worry Roy, throw a couple iodine tablets in and you'll be fine.
Well, its still better than the water at work.
Breakfast of Champions!
I don't want any hair on my chest that badly!
Bottoms UP!
A Gulp-aholic falls off the wagon.
