First off relax. Have you seen the YOY indexs? Just what do you think you'll be fishing for in your 50's?

Secondly, 24 is young, 34 is not.....and 40 is the beginning of the end.

Thirdly, anything that involves standing on one leg for hours is not exercise, it is a waste of your life. Lose the eels.

Fourthly, women are happy to learn how to rig eels and load plugs if they get a car and credit card out of the deal.

Fifthly, age makes caffeine superfluous......pain works better at keeping you awake.

Sixthly, when you get over 50 and get up in the morning you are damn glad things hurt.......cause that way you know they are still attached.

Seventhly, in a few short years you won't be wasting as much energy on sex so you'll have more for fishing..... and bowel movements.

Eighthly, you can always buy a boat.

that is why I choose the 8th. fishing while seated, with food and drinks with in arms reach and being lazy all rolled into one.

Geez George, ya tryin to scare the H*ll outa everyone here.

I think if you live your life in moderation, exercise, eat right, limit booze
and nix cigs, you will be surf fishing into your 70's and still enjoying it, albeit
you won't be pulling all nighters or fishin more than 1 tide.
Look at Clammer, he's pushin 85. ,

Mixing up the exercise is key. Combos of walking,running,biking,stretching and light weight lifting keeps you motivated.

I was told that at 40 your warranty expires, after that you are on borrowed time and all the deferred maintenance catches up with you.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
