    so i walk down stream with my rod then i got a tangle at the same time!!!! What next? i went to cut it but i pulled a bit of line out and that got rid of the tangle, then i thought my luck was turning good so i tryed yanking the line and it came off!!! But then as soon as i casted again i got it snagged on a rock then it snapped
    so i walked right down stream and heres the awsome view

    SeN, days like that are what memories are made of.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    "The worst day fishing is better than a good day at work" In your case it would be better fishing than at school!

    The good side of that is you only got stung once, not twice or more. That would have sucked

    Chin up Sean, yip watching old faithful sail across the river only to be lost in a snag sucks... but life is full of lost lures, lost favourite hunting knives and tangled lines. It also has hooks in fingers hammers to thumbs and many other things that can make a day seem tough.

    But you have two parents sharing time with you, a beautiful place to fish and youth on your side.

    Enjoy the goodness of it all young fela your a weathly man.
