Spent a few minutes this afternoon prepping my salt water gear. New backing and line on the old reel. Not as easy as it sounds for a man who's knot challenged. Thank God for the ease of the internet. A three minute video refreshed my non-existant memory of how to tie an Albright knot. A few minutes of fumbling and strangely enough what I tied looked a lot like what was in the video.
The only thing missing now is a fishing license. The fine for disturbing the fish with out a legal permit down here in Alabama is a pistol whipping, rib busting and thirty days in jail with Bubba for a roomie. Though I've never been pistol whipped, it ain't on my bucket list so I'll wait till tomorrow and get legal.
Down by the docks we saw a porpoise porping by. Lois saw the majesty of it. I saw a sea mammal looking for food. Must be fish out there and those damned porpoises better leave them alone till I get my share.
Flyfishing with the coldest nigh of the year in decades coming on here in Gopher lands. I'm really jealous. Good luck....;)
