Southern Style Winter Fishing (Recovered) - schwei - 01-17-2021

There was a period of time (about 10 years) where every end of February, beginning of March the Unc, some special guest and I would go trout fishing down in Branson. As you would expect, it was pretty cold! On this particular year, Tim Filla went with us and was kind enough to take his boat. I remember, it was 0 dark thirty and we were going to head out to do some fishing. It was freezing. Actually a little below. The Unc and I were on the dock nearer the shore and Tim was getting his boat ready. The Unc and I were chatting when we heard, "SNAP!!" a second then, calmly, "Shiiitt!". We both looked over and saw Tim holding part of the steering wheel. The chunk from 10:30 to about 1:30 was missing from the boat. We still went fishing and I laughed every time I looked at Tim. It looked like he had the wheel from the Batmobile. The fishing was incredible that day, but, that's another story.  Smile
