I was a student intern at a club on Cape Cod back in 1989. We had a good bite on big fish at HOTM and I decided to call in sick so I could keep fishing. I was in a friend's boat(before cell phones) and used the marine operator instead of going ashore to use a pay phone. The boss asked me what all the noise in the background was and I accidentally hung up on him....fortunately I only got a one week suspension.

I used to plan everything around fishing until I had a wife and kids, but alas times have changed. I wouldn't have it any other way, though.

I still do some pretty stupid stuff in the name of fishing, let me see...

	It's not the bait At the end of your line It's the fishing hole Where all the fish is blind
