Skunked many times but at that age, the prospect of lunch and the grand adventure somehow made the lack of fish irrelevant!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Cool poem!. I was only skunked a handful of times when my dad taught me to play cribbage!. For some reason after the first dozen games at a nickel a point he wouldn't play with me anymore!. Yes, there WERE some good times!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Every time, that's one reason I don't enjoy fishing!. That, and they smell like fish!. But hey, that's why God created beer coolers and jerky!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've never understood the joys of fishing!.!.!.!.

After that, nothing could top that memory!.

Smart fish, what are you gonna do!?
Every now and again I'll go to the pier to try for snapper,

Never!. I think it has to do with the scent you put on your bait!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That fish must have went to school!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

my dad hit me on
the head and
called me
numb nuts!.
