Re: Passaic River 8/29 new pb smallie thanks in part to divine intervention

Bad things can happen when we leave the security of out homes and embark on an adventure. That sucks about losing your tackle in the current.
Thinking back on this summer:
* As I was loading up my wet kayak, it slipped from my hands and crashed against the side of my car leaving an ugly set a scrathches and a small dent.
* I dropped a $400 Canon SX40 camera while trying to take a picture of myself holding a fish on Spruce Run Reservoir.
* While ambling along a rough dirt road in a state park I drove past a tree branch growing out into the road and left a conscipuous set of scratches in my car running from the headlight to the tail light.
But if we don't take these chances, nothing good can happen to us either.
I wouldn't mind having a clean, scratch-free car and a working camera, but I wouldn't trade them for the fishing I've experienced this summer.
