The state said I have to wear glasses to drive but I was wearing them before that, it's simply a good idea. I wear a brimmed hat when fishing protects the old chrome dome and ears from the the sun and misdirected flies. I never was a fan of pierced ears in old men. But to each their own.

I had a now departed friend fishing on the TN river in the Muscle Shoals area when on the first cast of the day the trebles on a Big O went into the scalp of his tourney partner. OUCH!
