Despite Dick Cheney’s claim to the contrary, Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) told Politico he stood by his story that the two are “fishing buddies.”
Said Enzi: “I anchored the One Fly Fishing Contest with him one time, and I was asked to speak at his induction in the fly fishing Hall of Fame. And we’ve talked about fishing when we’ve been together.”
Cheney said over the weekend that Enzi’s claim of them being fishing buddies “never happened.”
