Schaefer Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 Looks like the big guy really didnt want you to go fishing that day LOL ;D Thats just some REALLY bad luck, oh and you also forgot to add the price of gas ;D ;D I remember like couple weeks ago me and my dad went steelhead fishing in the Trent River, at first it wasnt raining too bad but after a while of fishing it started raining a little harder. A salmon slammed my spoon and it was about a 20 minute fight. The thing was, while fighting that salmon for 20 minutes i was constantly wiping the rain from my eyes, it was quite aggrevating. At one point I had to close my eyes cuz they were stinging really bad. BUT its all worth it even if you catch just 1 fish. Quote
Guest avid Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 This is what I have talked about on numerous occasions. You have to live in Florida to believe how fast the weather can change. PS Try this with the phone. - Take out the battery and use a blow dryer on it and all the connections. I have done this at it may work DO NOT PUT IN MICROWAVE Quote
