Ohhh Nelly!
I have a fishing partner that I have fished with for quite some time and everything was great, we bought a boat together, went halfs on gear, bait, gas, whatever. Then one trip he fell asleep in the boat. I kept my mouth shut but made the ride as rough as possible for him. We joked about it the next day and so forth. We fished every spare moment that we had and spent more time on the river than on land. I was in heaven. About a month later this same friend would tell me he would meet me somewhere at 4:00 in the morning to head out fishing and I would be there at 3:30 hoping he would come early so we could get a jump start on things, but time after time he wouldn't show. To this day he tells me he will show and never does, man it gets old time after time, but I wanted to know why he was ditching me all of the time. So I did some investigating and found out that my friend would drink himself away every night. Man what a waste! Life is to much fun to let that kind of crap take over. All I have to say is that I have a drift boat and a sled that are always open so if anyone likes to fish, and I mean fish hardcore, I am very serious when it comes to fishing and I like to have a good time, but I know when to draw the line, give me a hollar...
