Mine is fishing on the Bushkill in 1970 near 1398 Bushkill Dr. At the time the building was still a factory and had a flood protection levee with mowed grass long the creek so it was easy to move up and own along the creek. It was a cold day so when I got there about 7 AM I went over to someone who had started a fire on the levee to warm up. At the starting bell I fished for a while, caught 3 and then went back to the fire to warm up. Went back down and fishing was slower so it took me a while to creel two more then back to the fire to warm up and tell stories. Went back to fishing and got a 16" palomino and it was time to quit. Was freezing cold and figured it was lunch time. When I got back home it was a little past 9! Time sure goes slow when you are freezing.
Maybe about 1965 when I was a 12 year-old kid me and a couple of other buddies staked out a spot on the outside of the bend in a good pool about 6 AM. We didn't have waders and it was great spot to drop a worm into the hole. About 7:45 some guy wades right in front of us blocking our way and spooking the fish. I was pissed. After a little while trying to cast around him I tied on the largest CP Swing spinner I had and cast it upstream of the dude. When I felt the lure touch his waders I yanked and tore a big hole in his waders. I gave a sheepish look and said I was sorry. I hope I don't go to hell for that.
