    How have you adapted to fishing with Age and Medical Challenges?

    A lot of you guys mention still fishing as the cure to not being able to fish running water. I gave us still fishing because it was too hard to get my boats into the water! I got float tubes, big V boat, and personal pontoon boat that can navigate a river. They all weigh a ton! How do you...

    How have you adapted to fishing with Age and Medical Challenges?

    One thing to consider if you have access are beachs. Surf fishing is awesome. I'm on SoCal beaches at least a few times a week. Technically, it can be demanding to keep your interest and there are seasonal targets to get some variety even if fishing the same spots. Beaches are an easy walk...

    Yeah cost is crazy but if MD's did the surgery instead of dentists you could have bought 4 cars! You still made the best choice. We are lucky to have 1st. world problems.

    LOL! Best reason to fish salt everything is gigantic. Eyes don't work as well nor do arthritic fingers especially when cold. When young I fished light tippets tied 22 flys. I have found if I up the tippet size I loose less gear. That's better for me and better for environment. I fight a...

    True! This is the natural business cycle of innovation where at the end of the day the tech will stay but the strong will survive. We lived not only .com but something as brick and mortar as the car industry. There was a time there were 50 guys building cars and today we got a few big...

    I hope life will be more simple. The problem is with AI doing more people are not doing less. People are feeding the demands of the AI kitty with no increase in quality output. We are wasting time. Case in point I have had the same work comp carrier for about 10years. The insurance...

    In the short run I see the glass half full. But in the long run you might be right the glass is going to be empty! I also will only be around for some good parts.

    Funny....$30Billion dollar market cap Archer Daniels Midland sells us ultraprocessing ingredients for fattening us up. While Eli Lily reached $1 Trilion dollar market cap selling us zepbound and monjaro to thin us down. We get poorer, dumber, and sicker.

    All of this is the parent's fault. Your parents and my parents may not have actually known what they were doing or what the outcome of their upbringing might be. They probably acted much like their parents where they could. The real problem is the breakdown of the family and lack of moral...

    If we had free education and free healthcare we would not be smarter if still teaching to the Edwardian model or healthier if obesity is our #1 preventable health concern. Money does not fix. It facilitates.

    Wasn't "common core" a national revamp of k-12 but failed all students rich and poor? I guess we did not learn anything from that?

    Abstract Watercraft

    That's pretty cool! But I see a lot of guys and even guides who have made their own raft frames for a fraction of the cost of a custom or store bought frame kit. I guess it will be a cost thing and a style thing.

    the problem starts at the top. The ivys have remedial math classes when those students should never have been admitted. Places like ucsd have 1 of 8 students can’t do 8th grade math level. We have too many participation awards under the guise of positive self esteem and positive mental health...

    Not for profit just means all the money is distributed to workers and operating costs. The CEOs are making millions. If the business makes more money the guys at the top are not donating that money to charity. <<<The CEO salary for large, not-for-profit healthcare organizations varies...
