Needless to say I got home about 9pm and I am well rested this AM..
See, this is proof postive of the negative effect of using eels for bait has on a once promising striper fishing career, you go brain dead.

Why even try.........

Your drinking Numbskull's tea, I see...next thing you know you'll be sporting a shiny gold conventional reel and an extra tall wetsuit. Fear not though, I know just the place to find a good sized potato for you...

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

Made the long trip to the canal one morning to only find that I forgot to put the front tire to my bike in the car......nothing like having to ride a wheelie the length of the canal bike path.....

That post made my day. Still laughing out loud while envisioning a fully decked out fisherman and bike riding a wheelie down the service road.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan
