it had been about 20 years for me. i had a friend who was having a rough
time and wanted to go fishing to clear his mind and think of happier things.
i'm glad he invited me! i grew up fishing but, after years of it, only
landed one 10 lb catfish, a 1 lb crappie, and a 3 lb large mouth
bass...crappy stats! i caught fish all the time of each kind...those were my
records though. i'm way into buffalo and carp. they are babies in the summer
and monsters by the fall...and man, they fight like their lives depended on
it. we fish off of a pier and use bungie chord to anchor the rods to the
metal benches...otherwise, your rod goes missing in the blink of an eye.
you ought to try it again. take your wife too.
