After mentioning Zinke’s struggles to properly rig a fly rod at the end of an article the editor of Outside Magazine was banned from the next conference call held by the Department of the Interior.

Don Pogreba points out this is not only idiotically comical but it brings to mind a scene from a Montana classic, A River Runs Through It.
Looks like Secretary Zinke could use a properly rigged fly rod and some Patagonia fly fishing gear. Donate to my GoFundMe so we can mail Secretary Zinke a fly rod combo and a Patagonia vest.

I don’t know about you Across the Pond U.S. fellas, but here in Britain, we (well, let’s be honest, make that I, me, for a long long time, about a number of high-profile, suddenly extremely defensive and argumentative Neo-Piscators when spotlighted) have a saying: “Couldn’t hook his arse [ass] in the bath.”.
That has probably been lost in 3,000 miles of trans-Atlantic Cultural and slightly differing English language translation, but, hey, some of you might just get a non-standard Britfisher’s drift….
