Hello everyone, thank you for being brave enough to come to this topic today. We range from all walks of life, have different viewpoints and yet we share something in common.
We love to fish, like a lot, it's a fact. That's why we are gathered here today. Addiction to Fishing is a real disease and should not be taken lightly! So we are gathered here to speak about your particular 'poison' when it comes to fishing.
For example: I am a huge overachiever and don't like to back down without fight. I am talking about the days when you are casting over and over, moving locations, switching rigs, lures, bait, rods and reels, hell even rebraided your spool with a different color braid because you think it might help. You get so frustrated that by this point you start to think about attaching your knife to a stick and stabbing minnows to death, just to have the satisfaction of CATCHING SOMETHING!
That and the freaking sun. It GOES DOWN too quickly and you have to leave for home, but if you could just throw a few more lines out maybe you can hit paydirt. Then it's suddenly pitch black outside and you have to pack up everything in the dark because like an idiot, you forgot a flashlight because you should have been gone hours ago WITH A FEW FREAKING FISH!!
Anyway, that is my rediculousness out there for everyone to see, will you share yours?

And then because it's dark and the very last thing you pick up is your rod and you are frustrated and snagged and give a mighty heave and the hook, lure comes flying at you hits you in the face and embeds itself in a cheek or lip or ear or some such other nastiness. So welcome to the forum darlin' you are in excellent company.
