I think I've shared this on here before...
But my dad and I were at ends all throughout high school... Too similar, I guess. When I got into college some of that kind of melted away. My dad and I have the same birthday, so for our birthday one year I got us a guided trip to Lake Fork. The night before, staying at the little marina motel, I told my dad for the first time that I was proud of him and how much I cared about him. (He built himself up from nothing, not getting into all of that here.)
So the next day we didn't really catch much. In fact, my dad didn't catch anything. I caught 4 I think, largest being a 5-3. The look on his face when I lipped that fish said it all.

Fishing in the marsh canals in Lacombe. My sister and I (5 and 7 at the time) kept insisting we wanted to get out of the boat and walk on the nice grass. Parents keep telling us it wasn't a lawn and that we'd sink. Well, we kept it up, so they let us out and went around a bend. Of course, we sunk up to our asses. My stupid little sister just cried and cried. I told her they'd come get us, but she kept crying. After about five or ten minutes they came and got us. Pretty funny. Wish we could have left my sister out there.

I remember fishing for the first time with my future (now ex) father in law, a staunch Southern Baptist. A 6 foot cottonmouth fell off a branch (horizontal to the bank) and into the boat, and the litany of curse words out of my mouth may have scared the snake out of the boat.
