Thanks. Do the fish like their artificial reef?

I have never asked one.
Fish are re-stocked in the Marina periodically. Recently Tiger Trout were released there. Fishing is legal as long as one has a license. There is a weekend for kids to go fishing in a section of the marina that is netted off so most if not all will get at least one catch.BIRD WATCHERS: anyone know what this bird is? snapped a pic on the sandy beach of the marina where nearby there are many bushes where ducks, geese and possibly seagulls lay their eggs and hatched.

Early 90's I was up at the Dodd Beals fire school. Spent my afternoons fishing locally. Not bad. I seem to recall a bridge that was pretty popular, can't remember the name.I have never asked one.

The stick work is done well into your hand-to-hand training. It is an extension of your training, not a mainstay. The cane is used in hapkido, the jo is used in hapkido (short stick) and the bo staff in Taekwondo.

Walking sticks are ok, to throw at the threat to buy a little time to grab my cordless hole puncher.
I'm old, and not near as limber as I once was. I can't really justify shooting someone younger, stronger and faster than I in many/most circumstances. But, I can use a stick, short or long in non lethal application. Knowing how one can pretty well incapacitate an opponent.
I am 50 years old now and still walk assisted by a cane when out of my home. A car accident 3 hrs ago causes this. Mine is hickory, made by a friend. It is an option for defense that I am glad to have, even though I carry. The question was asked earlier in this thread what to do with it while sitting in a restaurant. Just like I would never lay my handgun in the seat next to me, neither would I my stick. You just figure it out.

I'm at the point I feel "unarmed" and "missing something" when in public without the cane. Tomorrow I'm going somewhere with both the handgun and the cane. But admit to often going to the grocery store-daytime and good location-without a handgun but with the cane.

I am in the process of making two sticks out of my Japanese maple it very hard wood . When I trim my maple I always find some nice pieces for a cane or a short walking defense stick they come out really nice . These aren't finished
