So what has been your panic experience with the virus?

Today while taking my time in the grocery store at 7:30 am strolling through a section not marked which way to go, I stopped dead in my tracks while reading my list.

Behind me stops a woman her well thought out 6 feet and I hear the most noticeable sound from the screech of tennis shoes like on a basketball court.

As I turn around the woman from behind her mask loudly tells me to GO GO and points for me to get out of her way.

While standing my ground being in an un marked walkway I point behind her and say: I am going that way.

With fire coming from her eyes, burning rubber from her tennis shoes, a mumble from beneath the mask, and now a tuck of her chin, she high tales it past me.

A definition of Panic: sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior.

Yep that was her.

I first posted this as a comment to another post, but after giving it more thought, decided that the warning should have a larger audience. I believe the original post on Fishing Forum was called Decisions, Decisions, and was about whether a man would, should, choose a high maintenance model, or fish every day. I am now relating a true story that actually happened. This story I am going to tell is not the only one that I have known, but one I just have the most details.

Another broker who was a partner, associate, and close friend related this sad story on a day by day basis, blow by blow account of what happened to his father who had been recently widowed. His father had been a remarkably successful stockbroker for a number of years and had recently retired and was now living alone in condominium alongside a private golf course and was a member of that club. He also continued to hold membership in a private club downtown.

To help him, the father hired a young attractive housekeeper to cook his meals and maintain his residence for him. It was not long before his son noticed that this young woman was beginning to have an ever-increasing influence on his father. He warned his dad to be careful and be aware of her possible intentions.

I never learned whether the father was an alcoholic, but he did love his scotch. His young housekeeper would meet him at the door with a drink, pamper him with his favorite meals, and in every way made him enjoy life. I do not know whether they were sleeping together, or not, but within a year they were married.

Not only were they married but she convinced the father to make her the sole beneficiary of all his assets and property. Not long after the father dies, whether from natural causes, or not. She collects his life insurance, all his brokerage account assets, sold the condominium and disappeared with her real lover. All of which appeared to have been a planned operation from the beginning.

Now, on the one hand, the father appeared to get what he wanted and died a happy man. On the other hand, while his children were not in any need to inherit his estate, the appearances would strongly indicate he had been the victim of a plan by a cunning female who played him and his ego like a violin. No doubt she snooped and read his mail including his brokerage statements and learned what his approximate estate was worth. She then seduced him into a marital relationship for the sole purpose of capturing his estate.

Stop and think, how difficult would it be for an attractive young woman to capture an old man’s attention and affection. He was gulled into thinking she was truly interested in him. No fool like an old fool! The flowers on his grave had probably not wilted before she lined up her next conquest! How easy it is to reel in a sucker! Just Sayin…RJS

No matter where my travels take me I always get asked, "What do I need to do to catch bass on my home lake." Well, the answer is simple. Quit that job. That cuts into a man's or lady's fishing time more than anything. Get rid of that job and go fishing!

Seriously, bass fishing, like most every other endeavor, can be extremely simple or really complex and technical. If you're new to bass fishing, or fishing in general, a stroll through the fishing department at a big box outdoor store can be overwhelming. It is tough to know what to gear to buy to catch fish on the lake you plan to fish.

Hopefully the below information can be put to good use, and you'll discover, just as I and hundreds of thousands of other people have, how fun and enjoyable fishing can be.
