George, great thread and perspective. Still trying to get used to not seeing my kids every day since the divorce. The one thing I have come to realize is how much I love spending time with them now and how much I miss them when it's not my day(s) to see them.

As far as fishing, I had an uncle growing up who loved fishing (still does actually) and seeing pics of him in Alaska and going out on his boat a few times and I was hooked. (no pun intended)

My daughter (12 tomorrow) and my 7 year old son have taken to sweet water fishing so far (sunnies and bass). I don't know if they have the patience to fish the salt yet, and I won't take them until I get comfortable with them in the salt anyway. I have always preached the importance of following their own interests and not feeling that they have to like what I like for me to love them. (although if they started rooting for the 'Fins, Jets or Steelers we may need to have a talk)

Again great topic!!
