Threw the tread on a trailer tire on the way to RR. Two new tires consumed the entire guide fee. Lost a life vest. Throw cushion must have blown out of the boat yesterday. Going to replace it today since one must be aboard. Pinched the transducer cable and the new Elite 5 no longer works. Customer broke my favorite rod. Someone scraped my truck with their trailer in the parking lot. Cranking battery was dead Thursday morning. Did not have time to shop and the Optima was $250.00.
Plus the fishing on LL could be better. It has been tough the last week.
Nothing to do but look forward to the future. I will be out there tomorrow with a more positive attitude.

Man I know the feeling. Its been my experience that if you fish often... things will get torn up and bad sh!t will happen occasionally. Its just part of the deal. -Fat

Sounds like a little dark cloud over you. It will clear up shortly. I think a lot of that is just guiding . I told my wife something needs fixing every day.Today will be better. Johnny

That's like me going to Church's for some fried chicken and the cashier tells me they are out of chicken(true story); me stopping at DQ for a soft serve cone and the machine is broken(true story), Me walking in to get a marquee advertised Banana Split special, and the guy tells me they are out of bananas!(true story), so you see, . . .

I am just lucky my problems are trivial compared to a lot of folks' like Oklahoma City and West. The recent incidents have only been frustrating for me. The subject should have been "String of Frustrating Incidents"

Don,
Could be a whole lot worse! Just think how bad it would be to have a "real job"! I tell folks I haven't worked a day in 13 years and I mean it. (After 30 years in the Corporate World, I now wake up ready to go everyday)
Better Day Tomorrow!

The subject should have been "String of Frustrating Incidents" Well said, Don! Glad you got all that out of the way!  Hey we got decent rain this morning too and maybe two more days of the same!
