I came up with this I ran out one day... Either way it caught a 2 1/2lb bass and I was hooked for life!

No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

That was 30 years ago and I think my old man still fishes with the same gear.
