Many years ago, my friend Mark, and another friend named Frank, and I would make a routine of fishing the big lake in Florida. It seems I have never outgrown the total enthusiasm I have for fishing. Whether riding my bicycle in the dark just to be fishing at daybreak, or just getting up too early for Frank and Mark. That never left me. I get just too excited about fishing

It would be pitch dark out and I’d have bacon cooking, eggs out and coffee on and be too excited to breathe. Already I had looked outside the cabin and saw there was NO WIND. Eggs on , can’t wait.  Suddenly there were shouts from the other bedrooms “Quit that cooking we have hours before safe light.”

Safe light? Who cares about that NOW?  My idea is to be totally ready before whatever that safe light meant. Lazy  guys. I could never go back to sleep so I drank my coffee and read a magazine, re-lined one of my reels and oiled every piece of my equipment. Safe light. NUTS!
