At my age, I think about going fishing, more than having sex. I'm right there with you  But I'll take it a step further. Since sex is no longer an option, fishing is all I have left to think about.

like most of you it has been completely on my mind all the time. However, for me now approaching the age of 80 and not in the very best health I can see an "end of game".
what I don't want to be is a burden on the "boaters" that take me out, so now I am basically quitting.
HOWEVER, AFTER MUCH THOUGHT i AM GOING TO GO BACK TO MY ROOTS, WHICH WILL KEEP MY FEET ON THE GROUND (in this case on the sand) and go surf fishing.

Always.
Had a friend years ago invite me to "continue the party" after we shut the bar down which was a common thing and was always a good time. I told him man I am going to go home and load my stuff and drive down to the beach and get some sleep then start fishing at 5am. He remarked " man I was I had something in my life I was that passionate about" I never forgot Jamie Carter saying that to me and it defined me.
I used to take my sons all the time. They both would rather put headphones on and play video games. Now 19 & 22 the youngest trying to learn the saltwater game and I am giving him pointers. The older one, still would rather play games, My point is I wish everyone had something in their life they get up early on their day off, take a day off, spend quality time doing it, or anything but most life just passes them by I swear.
Hell I aint even that mad at them anymore and still enjoy the heck out of it. Boat in the shop but I could easily drive down to Lake Charles tonight and blow at a casino what I spend in a year on the boat, gear, and gas and not get near the enjoyment out of it.
My little girl really likes to go and the time of year I take her and her friends ( white bass fishing ) is about to start and I love sitting back and watching them catch 2 at a time. The looks on their faces. I have pics of the boys doing that too but they forgot it... I never did.
Watch it happen, make it happen, or say what the hell happened. Capt. Phil Harris F/V Cornelia Marie RIP

I bought some line clips and the package..... And clips smell like feminine hygiene product. I'm not joking. It's some kind of perfume they sprayed the inside of the package with. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/12/full-120024-166406-img_20221229_154759.jpg) They stink.

Think about fishing? I've been practicing pitching and flipping all morning. Cat-fishing. Using a pink Zoom fluke. Ultralight rod, KastKing spinning. 8# braid, 6# mono leader. Line clip holding the fluke. I'm about to get another bite and it's a big fat cat. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2023/01/full-120024-166897-img_20230102_114412.jpg)

I only think about fishing 26 or 27 hours a day.
