- Wade with care.
- An inflatable pool toy is in my future....and so is something gas powered that can't be popped by one of my pathetic errant casts.
- Next time check with the Penguin before booking your trip.
- Hydrate.
- May the fishing gods strike down with wrath upon Mr. Morin and his friggin' gameboy sounding, fish stealing, cell phone.
- Those little handheld GPSs are fun. The included maps worthless.
- If jborkowski can catch fish during the "dog days", anybody can.
- And last but not least, don't let the negative reports get you down. The fish are out there to be had. Not to mention, there's a lot to be learned fishing under tough conditions. It forces you to think hard about how and why you're doing what you're doing. It forces you to consider locations you might not otherwise. It forces you to become a better fisherman.
