My pier rat

[bigcatcatcher]

Just showed my daughter (shes 16 ) the fish from the skyway and i had to promise i will take her as soon as possible.When i worked at pier 60 she was so young but she loved fishing when i was working and she allways brought her fish to show her proud pappy. She quite often outfished everbody on the pier. I am sick that i took her out of florida just so i could get a good job. Like father like son my fater moved me away from belleair beach when i was 10 but i went back when i was 18. I had to totaly relearn how to saltwater fish again.

Wow my story is very similer I was born in Miami and lived there till I was 7. Then in Feb of all months my family moved to Chicago of all places for my dad's job I fought it all the way first time I saw snow and I hated it from day 1. Moved back to Fl when I was 18 and I will never leave other than work in the summer like now.
Tight lines

Uncle Sam took me away when I was 18, was in the Army until I was 26 all over the world. The old saying "there's no place like home" was never truer. Will never move again, no way, no how, period,end of statement.
