I lost a brand new baitcaster combo ($300) one evening fishing in Browns creek, line snapped and jerked out of my hand fishing a spinnerbait.. Tried to snag it for a week. Gave up on it. Then watching bassmaster live feed, I saw an angler catch it. Their words were something like “ I bet that made someone a little sad”, yep, sure did.
My brother caught a boat anchor when we were fishing the big bass splash one year, heaviest thing we caught all weekend and it still sits on his desk.


You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.... (Seuss)
