the first time i can remeber was behind my parents house on the rabbet river in hamilton i was about 4 and we would go sucker fishing for something to do after dad got home from work, like i seen in a nother post SURE WOULD BE NICE TO BE A KID AGAIN becouse i fished about 300 day a year on the river some where and by age 9 i had my first conoe but my first time on the big lake was on my 8th birthday my dad took me out on a freind of his boat out of saugotuck called the wolf pad we left the slip at 6 am and had 15 kings in the box by 9am and i bet i lost that many to ,the most i remember of that day was how sore my arms were and that there was no way to lift the cooler this was 7/11 1978 and i was hooked for life wow that brought back some memories terry

i agree with unreel ,a hard toss up between pickled sunshine or the blue bubble glow
