kids cruising the shoreline all the way around the lake in a wake boat, just drinking beer and blaring music.

Freaking wake boats with flames painted on the sides and loud music blaring. The only good thing about them is there's usually some eye candy bouncing around on the bow! Lol. Seriously though, I've had them nearly swamp me before while fishing in rivers or canals and had to help an old man bail out his boat while trying to fish with his grandsons once after one came by. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I'm finding them increasingly annoying. The 30+ footers aren't much fun either. It makes me miss Late Fall and Winter.

I tend to get stuck on a technique that's not working but have had success with in the past. I know I need to listen to the bass, telling me what they do or do not want. But still find myself reluctant to get outside of the box. I do this all the time and it aggravates me so much, but I still keep on trying because I know that it has worked before.

Losing fish in a tournament! It has cost me roughly $18,500 in the last two FLW Tour events.

I get pretty annoyed after I get a fresh senko rigged up, butter it up with megastrike and skip it way back under the dock. Then I get the little "tick," but instead of bowing up on a dandy, a damn bluegill steals my senko on the first cast. "Nothing worse" than a senko bandito.

Right now, it's this. Happy for the rain, but I won't be fishing in a thunderstorm.

1.Wind that prevents me from fishing where the fish are. Not to mention two serious injuries due to waves. 2.Fatique that comes with my age!!!
