I still remember the first time I went fishing. I was 3, fishing on my great grandma's pier at an inland lake in Northwest Ohio. When I was fishing the other day, I flashed back to what that first fish felt like. The excitement of that little sunfish's energy being transferred into the cane pole in my hand. I was just as hooked as that sunfish. 53 years later, I'm rediscovering my LOVE of fishing as I learn to fish Florida's inshore waters. If possible, I love it even more now than I did way back then.
