Ray,

No such word...?

It might not be correct above, but the word certainly exists. "Ray showed himself to be an excellent fly-caster" is absolutely correct as far as I know - but then again, I'm not a native English speaker, so I might of course be wrong.

And reading a little about the word, showed is often referred to as "technically correct" but in practice, shown rules the day.

Well, life is full of irregularities...

Martin

Past tense of the word "show" is "shown". No such word as showed.

Philadelphia on the Fly - ron P. swegman

ron P. swegman has taken up fly fishing again, fishing a plain 5 weight rod, riding his mountain bike to the water, wading deep rocky pools in hip boots and not least: fishing a lowly city stream with the downtown skyline of a large metropolis in the background. He has written a book about it.
