[cool]Let me guess. The best time to go fishing is whenever you can. That has been my credo for years. It goes right along with "Fishing is always good...even if the catching ain't"
I envy you on your successful "mini-expedition". Sometimes those quick hits can be very productive, and can sustain you through a whole day of nasty stuff...like work. I have had a lot of times over the years when I have made a "hit and run" shot in between more onerous and mundane tasks.
When the fishing is bad (never), you don't have as much problem breaking free to return to reality. But, when you have to leave active fish, you begin to examine your real priorities in life. And the boss is tough to convince that you are an hour late for the important meeting because you "had a flat tire"...when you come in smelling like fish and with a silly
on your face.
I see in your other post that you also had a good time at the show. Hope it didn't affect your "net" worth too badly. But then again, investments in new fishing stuff should be deductible on your taxes...and we should be able to claim tackle manufacturers as dependents. Right?
