So what do you consider a die hard fisherman???
Are you one ?
Have you been told you are nuts, or crazy ???
Do you think about fishing 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week ???
Do you think about it in your sleep, or even done things like set a hook in your sleep???
Do you go out in weather that is dangerous to be out in ???
Do you drop things that you really should be doing at a moments notice after getting a phone call from a bud suggesting to go netting bait all night , and then go fish them from 4:00am till about 10:00 pm that night, and then go sleep for 1 or 2 hrs, and do the same thing for 2 or 3 more days straight ???
Do you sometimes think you may need help, like a recovering alcoholic needs to go to to AA meetings ???
Capt. Mike and I have been accused of all these things and have been told we are anything from crazy, insane, nuts, ect....
I know Basic Patrick and and a few others are just as bad off!
So, are we crazy or just more dedicated than most and what do you consider you're self ???
