I'm pretty steadfast on that one. If I say I am leaving at 9PM then I am leaving at 9PM. No waiting around. Leave on him and he will get the message.

If you chose not to drop him, tell him your gonna leave an hour and a half before you actually are. Then make him wait and see how he likes it. I usually say meet me, and start fishing when Im supposed to, maybe they can find me.

you're a sports fan, right don? 3 strikes and you're out. eben touched on sore subject with me, asking to go home early when we're on the water. knowing full well my intentions for the night. can't stand it.

horrible, thanks for askin' though. retired after 14 years of softball this year to fish more and with more of you than i ever have. well you know where this story is going. a buddy on my team busted up his knee and they called me up to play for him for a few weeks, very bad idea. 4th game back, routine fly ball, and POP. 100% ruptured right achilles. surgery on the 12th, 2 days before my 33rd birthday and now i'm in a hard cast until the end of sept. no fishing, swimming or driving my street rod for nearly 3 months. just been sitting home for 3 weeks getting more and more frustrated (read jealous)at the quality and quantity of fish you guys are getting. save some for me if i can get on the water in october, will ya? thanks again for asking bud. hope to see you soon.
