Rob Rockcrawler gave me the sickness and taught me so well that I can outfish him every now and then
Special thanks to him for picking out nests, rigging and rerigging my stuff, pulling me out of snags, retrieving snapped-off plugs, landing big fish (and schoolies), carrying my stuff, wrangling cunner, replacing headlight batteries, and multiple other very helpful things. Oh, and yeah, he still does all that all the time.
Dad taught me how to catch kivers with a bamboo rod and a bobber, and through trips with him I also learned that girls can't pee standing up. That was a fun ride home.
Snippets of advice online and in person from too many people to recall.
Yay stripers.
