I'd take a cob or a cheap briar. My Meers or finer briars don't usually leave the house.
I have taken a Meer to the smoke lounge in the past for bragging purposes, but it's in the protective case, and I try to use something more "disposable" that I won't cry too much if it gets damaged while I'm boating or mowing the grass.

I haven't fished in probably 35 years. I have three or four fishing poles that have been in the same place in the garage for that long. I should clean them up and go fishing one of these days. I don't have a boat though so that stinks. Fishing off the bank or a pier or dock like some schlub is not my style. I used to have access to a boat but I never used it. My step-father had a really nice bass boat but my mother sold it after he died. Now I wish I'd have said, "Hey Bill, let's go fishing." Then I'd have known how to answer this question. If I lived in New Orleans I'd give [mention]Whalehead King[/mention] a buzz and see if he wanted to head to the bayou for some fishing. I'd even lend him one of my fishing poles. We could compare what we considered a proper fishing pipe.
I don't think I took a pipe that last time 35 years ago. I probably just dipped Copenhagen. And none of those weird flavors or cuts either. This was still back when in snuff you had three choices, Skoal, Copenhagen, and Happy Days. Well, four choices, because there was Happy Days mint and Happy Days raspberry. It's like Walt Garrison always said, "There are times when a guy just can't smoke."
Enough of these pointless ramblings. If I was going fishing I'd leave my pipes at home and take along Copenhagen.
ps If Joe never dipped Copenhagen before I can guarantee you Mr. Jones had to finish plowing that field because Joe was somewhere else puking his guts up.

quite the consensus and i happen to do the same, one of the few times i clench...must be the right answer. Next time i'll include the Legend, instead of the Fifth Ave., might be a bit more handy to deal with.

I always think that ramblings have a point. It just takes awhile to get there and, even if you wonder why we're here at story's end, that's the whole point. The journey is the adventure as much as its end.
I'd go fishing with you, KK. A six pack of tall boys and a pack of machine made cigars while sitting in the shade along Bayou St. John, which is at the end of my street... We might catch a fish or we might hook a boot. It will be Das Boot. Then we can go Deutsches Haus, the German-American Club on Bayou St. John for some more beer, a couple of brats, and more good conversation.
You know where to find me when you have the time!
