Getting smarter as you get older _not

I hadnt been fishing in awhile so decided to take the Northwind and go to the lake.

My gear was scattered so it took awhile to round it up but I finally got ready loaded the yak and off I went. Got to the lake unloaded the yak put in the ice chest had bought some bait to use till I could castnet some shad.
I ran through my list, bait box check, paddle check, pfd check,cooler and and drinks check, worms check, rods CRAPPPPP left my dang rods at the house. After I called myself the dumbest sob that ever walked I decided to just go play with the yak , I sure love this Northwind ,I had fun just getting out and paddling. One of my friends was there with a sot and the wind was killing him I was just cruising
CRS, forgetful or just plain da# stupid ,not sure which ,I guess I need a list :shock: :shock:

Ron,
The invitation is still open. Come on down and we'll boil some EasterEggs, paint them, hide them and then see if we can find them. Hiding your own Easter Eggs is quite a challenge. :shock: :wink: :wink:

Don't feel too bad, Ron. Last year I "lightened my load" by forgetting the entire kitchen bag - stove, fuel, cook kit, mess kit, and dish washing stuff. At least I had the pail of food.

Forgetting stuff isn't that bad , now if I could just remember what it was I forgot. :wink:

That's one reason after each trip I clean everything , assort it and stack it so it is right there ready for another trip. Yes , I am prepared and know where everything is. For some reason that does not explain why there is always something missing when I set up camp. You can bet it is at home or left in the Jeep , usually in the Jeep. :roll:

Somebody on here says that the only way to be sure you won't need it - is to take it along.

I normally dont forget much ,but sure made up for it this time .
I guess you just cant fix stupid some times.

Ron,
Do like I do. I've keep a little pac rod in my truck all the time. They are not very big but they sure are a lot of fun.
