BOAT=Hole in water for money

Salmon fishing can get into your blood especially when you land a few like this each season. Like hooking the back of pickup truck. Hair over 32#.

I owned several boats over a period of 24 years. It was really fun for around 20 of those years. Then it hit me one day: I've had to work on every boat I've owned. Major work on most all of them. I started dreading even hooking the boat up to head out to the lake. Thanks to televized BassMasters being an influence on people along with the level of respect that has been instilled in this generation: people just pull right up next to you while fishing and start fishing by you or casting where you are casting. I decided that I was done with it. Don't miss it. Maybe I will miss it one of these days but I don't think so.
I don't even bother buying a fishing license these days. With the attitude of other fishermen, I was starting to lose interest. Then came the encyclopedia of fishing rules and regulations you are supposed to remember (not at my age) or the books and books of new and old regulations governing what you can and can not do these days. Took all the fun out of it. Made staying home working on my boat more fun.
 
Actually added in some more work I decided to do as PM and bill came to $1819 which with the amount of work thrilled with final number. Its a stout boat, engine and outdrive have prob 3 lifetimes on them but if you PM them, they can last long time!! Hoping to get out next week once my epidural shot tomorrow quiets my back down. Shoulder surgery April 1st and recently back has flared up badly. But can't wait to get back on water.!

Crazy at it sounds, if a person was to fish in our local river with a worm on a barbed hook and had his/her pockets stuffed with drugs, they can be cited for using bait and also cited for a barbed hook, the drugs are inconsequential.

Life is about making decisions.
Including the places we choose to live.
