I don't know about you guys, but I can do 2 things at once. Set the hook with my left hand and keep my hat over my right.
I never served, but both great grandfathers, both grandfathers, and my father all served in the army. I'm one of those geeks that always goes up to service men and thank them for protected our country. Great Thread! Matt |

When I was recalled to active duty (01-04) I did a lot of paddling around the bay. I would get off work and go paddling most afternoons. Many times I would find myself close enough to NASNI or the sub base to hear evening colors. I would always stop and pay my respects. Even if it meant drifting a hundred yards the wrong direction or having to paddle like mad to get out of the channel afterward; it didn't matter. I have served for twenty years and I respect and honor our flag. A bite can wait for a minute.
