Sharing my feel good story,
I am a captain for the local High school Fishing club, Osceola Anglers, This was my first year, I was assigned a team and 3 weeks later my wife fell and broke her ankle and was immobile for 3 months so I had to step back and was put in as a back up captain, Only captained in 3 tournaments, Yesterday was a Student Angler event 1 club member and 1 middle school student. We had a good day and Brayden was my club member. I went to todays tournament and my services were not needed so I went fishing for a few hours (Caught that 10.2) went home, ate some lunch and headed to the club weigh in. While there Braydens dad came up to me and started a conversation, He told me how much Brayden enjoyed fishing with me, We talked a few other topics then he said, i am just going to be straight, Brayden wants you to Captain for him next year, That right there is telling me I must be doing something right. Brayden and I talked a lot about fishing, Confidence baits and tactics, so i think it is a good fit, but it sure brightened my day just being asked that by his father.
