With all of you old-timers on here, there have to be some fantastic fishing stories out there and I would love to hear them.
Here is one of my personal favorites - I was probably 7 or 8 years old fishing with my grandfather's favorite rod on a lake in the Poconos. We were going a few mph from one spot to another, my rod set behind me on the bow of the boat, my worm bouncing on top of the water. All of a sudden the rod tilts and heads for the bottom of the lake. Somehow I was able to grab it before it plunged into the water. Ended up catching the largest crappie anyone had ever seen and managed to save the rod from a watery grave.
