Already some great advice on this post. I have struggled with anxiety\depression for about 6-7 years now. I kept putting off seeking help. One day a good friend of mine, who was dealing with some of the same issues, came and we had a long talk. He ask me, "if you had the flu for this long would you keep putting off going to the Dr.?" I said of course not, he said well depression is no different. Its an illness and you need help to get over it. I got on meds, ADs, for awhile and it really helped me. Now I am on no meds and can deal with it on my own. I still have good days\bad days, but I think thats normal. Go talk to your doctor, and start a good exercise program. Depression is NOT to be left untreated!!!

Have fished as a co-angler for many years, I have to agree with the boater on this one. He clearly told you he was planning on turning around and fishing the other side. By you flipping to the other side, you were essentially fishing in front of him. It was just water he hadn't got to yet. Ive made this same mistake myself while fishing boat slips. Boater was throwing a buzzbait between slips so I casted to the slips on the other side. He said you cant do that, Ill be hitting those next. Lesson learned. I have found over the years its best to just ask the boater up front and get clear expectations rather than take anything for granted.
