That was your second chance

Don't sell your daughter short either. If she is exposed to fishiing, especially with her dad, she can love it just as much as your son! Enjoy the time with them now. My oldest daughter has discovered boys, so my popularity level is dropping quickly. Good times for sure!

Yep, I have a fishing buddy who is also a serious a-hole.

We use his boat(s).

He pays for fuel for his truck/towing.

He pays for fuel for the boat.

Friggin bastid.

Hey BOOMER - when are we going out again??

Your ex fishing buddy will forget most of the trips with you. Your kids will never forget.

There it is, right there. Nail on the head.

Jamisjockey, you need to get a " fishing wife " - I think he has a brother ???? ............ .......... ICM

What, we're setting up blind dates now?

[CharlieS]

Jamisjockey.......Your best "fishing buddy" is right under your nose! Odds are he'll never let you down and you will always be his hero. Forget the a-holes you are one lucky guy!!

Jason,

Hopefully I will be bringing the boat back this weekend.

Next time you see your "fishin' friend" tell him a hardy "THANK YOU!!!" He did you a bigger favor than he ever imagined. By the way - he did all of us here a huge favor as well because those pics are PRICELESS and WE got to see 'em here first!!

Yep.....I'd take the kids over him ANYDAY~!

[jiggin junkie]

Yes he did indeed do you a great favor. The pictures are priceless and I bet you found a few regular fishing buddies.

jj,

Just saw your thread, kids, that's what it's all about!

Took both of mine as soon as it was safe to have them in a boat. Prior to that we fish ponds from the bank.

My daughter is now 20 and my son will be 22, Aug. 9! Holy smokes!!

Time flies. Never miss an opportunity to take them. My kids still talk about past trips. Hell, I still talk about trips with my Dad.

I have had a few bad "Guest" on my boats that were pretty good friends. When they take advantage when they know better, they are never asked to go again.
