I first fish the canal as a five year old 54 years ago with my uncles, whoclearly recall at the time thinking I was a pain in the ass. They were fishing with drop lines and I was trying to do the same with absolutely no luck at all.

I have fished a very long time and thats the first time I did that. I came very close one othe time where the point went in, but the barb didn't, and there was no fish involved then either.

My wife was very pleased that before she came home from work I had allready received a tetanus shot and a script for antibiotics. She thought that very adult of me.

Last time I injured myself on the way fishing and should have had a couple of stitches when I cut myself at the wrist paralell to the vein and I bandaged it myself and continued on to go fishing. She was pissed when she came home from work, which for her is a hospital. She ran down and got some stuff and fixed the cut up.
