I woke up at four o'clock in the morning. I should have woken up at three o'clock.
I knotted 5X tippet to 4X leader. I should have knotted 4X tippet to the leader.
I said "Sxxt!" when my first strike tore my black woolly bugger off from 5X tippet and I missed it. I shouldn't have used the dirty word.
I didn't put DEET on my neck. But I should have done that when I hiked in the woods.
I tried to land today's hoped-for trout by my hand but he ran away before I touched him. I should have used my landing net.
Everything I did today was wrong except gone fishin'.
