Girlfriends that love to fish

While I was going through college, I met a girl named Lori. She loved to fish. We met through a friend that belonged to the same fishing club she did. It took a few months to get thoroughly involved - but, wow! Once we got involved - it was the best of the two worlds I was in at the time. I had a girl I was madly in love with - and she loved to fish as much as I did. Not only that, she had a boat - 17 foot Boston Whaler Montauk. We went fishing together. For a while - this was the relationship of my dreams. We went on charter boats together - where we would almost always get a lion's share of the fish. There were spots at Catalina Island that Russ Izor told me about - that I had always wanted to fish in a small boat. Here was the opportunity. Just inside Church Rock in very shallow water. White Sea Bass! In no more than 10 feet of water or so. Memory is a bit foggy - but we caught calico bass and halibut too. There was also a spot Lee Wong showed me at Point Fermin - line up the Pagoda on top of the hill with the gap in a line of trees near the edge of the cliff. Interesting story - we got there and started to fish. We hooked a sea bass as soon as we got set - and promptly dropped the anchor over. Only problem was - we forgot to tie the anchor to the boat. Laughable, but quite the bummer at the time. We fished a lot. This relationship lasted a few years - but alas, things just did not work out. This was just about the time I was at CSULB and was nearly finished. I think we broke up soon after I graduated. So, the morale of the story is, sometimes having your favorite hobby as a common ground is not enough.
