I have stayed away from opening day.
Convince me otherwise.
Help to show me where the sport is in opening day for stocked fish.

One man's pain is another man's pleasure:cheers:

Well Dice-K pitched a beauty......and the Sox won. Thats the attraction :hee:

For my 'opening day crew', it's more about tradition and getting together than the actual fishing. BSing around a fire, eating like kings, & sipping good brew all help make it a worthy experience. The fishing, although sometimes spectacular on opening day, takes a back seat in our minds.

To each their own though.

use to go with a friend of mine who has passed on. ist. fish we opened the champagne and enjoyed the rest of the day. it was more or less a reason to enjoy spring. then we started salt water fishing.
