Who are the people you learn/learned from--

[Swimmer]

I learned by doing...........with my push button Zebco 202 fresh water r/r. Fish the fresh water ponds within walking distance from my parents cottage in Eastham when I was 7 or 8. Use to be mesmerized by the saltwater fishermen I saw on the bayside and the occasional rides to Coast Guard or Nauset beaches and I saw these guys with these huge rods and reels. Never a moment when I was fishing that I got into trouble or thought about doing anything mischevious. The independent thinking I developed when I was a kid is still with me today, because of that little rod and reel.
