Fishing Partners

[buzzbaiter83]

I have been blessed with great fishing partners but my dad is the best. We still fish a Tuesday night derby every week and our Club Tourneys every other week. He’s the most high strung guy I’ve ever fished with but he’s my best friend. We have one tomorrow night and I’m looking forward to hanging out with him.

Original fishing partners were my grandfather and my cousin, but we fished for trout, not bass, I never knew a thing about bass fishing until I was at Ft Hood, a very good friend from Alabama taught me most of what I know. As a young private there wasn't money for technique specific equipment, and we pooled a lot of gear, I think we had a couple of spinning set ups, one baitcasting set up, I understand a lot of guys that get annoyed with that, but it's all we could afford and we had an absolute blast doing it (and caught a lot of fish with the "wrong" gear for a given techniqu), we don't get to fish hardly ever anymore, life happens and all, but I am looking forward to my nieces and nephews getting old enough to go, and my old lady told me to buy her a fishing rod last year, slow on the uptake but we've gone a few times and I'm hoping she ends up infected with fishing fever just like me lol.

I enjoy fishing with my friends. But there is someone special that none of them know about, a partner who is already there waiting for me when I go bank fishing in the evening. He doesn't say much but he has a sixth sense that lets him know where the fish are, and points them out to help me catch more. And I aways reward him with a healthy meal.
