One could say I've been hassled by cops before, although not while fishing. I was followed down a back road and cornered by a police car. But -- the officer asked, "Is everything okay? The Jehovah's Witness Hall isn't open this time of night, and I noticed you have a man in your passenger seat." Now, how nice is that? I was lost, took a random turn, and here was this guy, making sure I wasn't getting carjacked and raped or something. Even if some police officers or state troopers have crap attitudes, it makes me feel secure to know that when the chips are down, they'll save my butt, no matter if they're jerks or not. And plus, everybody has bad days, and I'm sure cops do, too. Who knows, maybe you're the first person he's spoken with since he got spit on, since he discovered a dead body, or since someone insulted his mother.

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
