Ok, I'll jump in. I am 60+ years old and have been on/around water, boats and fishing all my life. After I retired, I got my captain's license and started guiding. I fish all year long and chances are very good that if I'm not home, I'm fishing. Here are a few...

I spent probably 30 years chasing largemouth bass. Now I mostly chase after striped bass, stripers or rockfish as we call them, all over the southeast, but redfish, speckled trout, and flounder drive me crazy, too...:emoji_wink:

We have 4 granddaughters and one of them loves to fish more than I do.
Her and her best friend...

One of my biggest fears is that when I die, my wife will sell all of my fishing gear for what I TOLD her I paid for it...🤣
Nice pics, Ive fished in Sitka and have nailed some Barn Doors and Kings,
Alaska is a great place to fish!

I don't like pictures of myself so I don't have many onhand. However, this is one of my cats, Odin... ON MY HEAD!!! He just loves to lick my hair after I come in from smoking... Any other cat owners have this experience or is Odin just insane??? I'm going with insane.

For my 60th birthday, my wife decided that I should skydive for the first time ever. Don't have a clue where she came up with that idea, but it was scary, exhilarating, and did I say scary? But I did it and that has been crossed off of my bucket list, if it was ever on there to begin with...

Edit to show a pic of my son and I right before we went up...

BTW, my wife hates the hair. I blame it on being a product of the 70's and COVID...

And those were some VERY NICE Hammerheads...

I went through all 41 pages and it is a shame most of the pictures from the earlier years have disappeared. For that matter, it is a bigger shame that many of the active members from those earlier years are no longer active.

I'm glad I was able to see a picture of Dutch, of "Dutch's Wicked Baked Beans" fame and Pops.

Perhaps we can start a more recent post (Maybe Show Yourself II )since technology today enables us to post pictures more easily.

My son and I roasting a pig back in 2018View attachment 524282
That's how we did it when I was growing up. Had a 55 gal. drum we burned hickory in. It had a grate about a foot or so up from the bottom and a hole below to shovel out the coals when they fell through and spread them under the pig. Nothing high tech and we never had a meat thermometer, just feel and eyesight...
