bonefishdick Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) Well it' finally time to Spring forward. I always had mixed feeling over this, I think what I never liked about it was if I had to be on the water before sunrise or if I really wanted to do it right and be on the water before the sky started to get light I had to factor in the time to get up and get ready plus the commute is when I felt most strongly opposed to loosing that hours sleep.

BillyBallGame Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 I’m excited I’ll get an extra hour or so after work to not catch trout. (*member formerly known as 'wmitchell1') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile. With daylight savings time, sunrise is an hour later than it would be otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Sunrise will be always at same time no matter where are the hands on the clock. Sun was/is/will be always running on its own time Bad day fishing is still much better than good day work.

squidder 329 Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 I saw on the news today a few states have opted out of changing which will cause confusion, maybe the pimple is getting a head. I always hated it I had to be in work at 6am when I was driving thru deer country and just starting to get some daylight I would be right back into the dark.

saltfisherman Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Florida is about one step away from getting rid of the whole clock change idea. We will have daylight savings time clock setting all year long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeeRay56 Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Why can't we take Eastern Standard Time, add 1/2 hour, and leave the clocks alone the rest of the year? Simple solution. Body can adjust to the light changes and there is no gaining or losing an hour of sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyrodder44 Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hmmm! There is no tick tock clock by which the universe operates. Only mankind worries about time. I would guess that fish have no clocks other than light and dark skies. What did folks do before clocks? All artificial ideas to begin with. VeeRay, good idea. And, let's not get into that time and space are a continuum. Now I am getting stupid, so I quit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bill passed, and hopefully I'll never have to reset the clocks on my cars and appliances again.
