    Sundays are our "Date Day" and I try not to focus on fishing....just took those pics because we happened to be there and they were catching....
    Will do it another time when I'm by myself...
    Or next Spring when the fishing is better....
    Tight lines.....



    OK, but you're buying the beer.

    Being there and seeing that water and taking those pics and not being able to fish would drive me bonkers.
    Nice pics Dark, thanks for sharing.

    ^^ Monty, good point...it was extremely tough to be there and not fish......I tried not to let her see the drool running down the side of my face...
    What I have come to realize about relationships, is that Pebbles needs to see she is more important to me, than the fish.....
    She has put up with my craziness for a good number of years....I don't know how that poor girl managed to keep up....it ain't a picnic knowing me sometimes........and yet all through the years she is still with me.....love that girl....

    She is the bright sunshine to my darkest days....and her voice, and laugh, are something I don't want to be without.....
    I'm glad God made it so our paths would cross......
    And the screw up that I am....there have been times when I didn't express my thoughts on this....so I have no problem saying it now....

    That's why sometimes when our date day intersects various shore areas.....I'm tempted to throw gear in the car....but I don't.....you all know I have spent enough time fishing out there...even sleeping in my car at times to be able to take advantage of a hot bite,,,,for a whole weekend....

    She has never once hassled me about this.....
    as I get older it becomes more apparent to me....how precious that is, to have in a relationship.......

    So I don't bring my gear, to show her that she can be the focus of my day as well.....that, and date day, has helped our relationship a lot....and we have great times and laughs together........





    **For any of you people out there, who are getting in a rut in their relationships, taking each other for granted.....I wouid recommend something like date day, once a week...it has really helped ours.....

    Hope that explains it a little better......

    darkskies, you learned a valuable lesson the right way. some guys fish until they're all alone or divorced, and miss out for the rest of their lives!



    great pics... some day perhaps I'll be able to hit Rhody

    ^ Rob, very good point, thanks for making it.

    Some of the best guys out there, have put fishing in front of all else...and while you see them weigh in big fish consistently...what we don't see is the corresponding divorces, wives or girlfriends leaving, family estrangement...
    More on that in this thread....

    **If ya ever decide to fish Rhody, contact me ahead of time, have a few friends who fish and skish up there and may be able to put ya into some nice bass....let me know...

    This was a fishing bike that a guy we met used to ride to various places to access the bite......
