 One solve per person–each day.  The best days were always spent by the lake, barefoot in the warm mud, a fishing pole in hand, and the sun glinting off the water like scattered coins. Your challenge in this puzzle is to use the correct consonants to create words which describe different fishing techniques and/or equipment. Starting Letter Pile:B B B C C C D G G G G G G G H H J L L L L N N N N N P P R R R R R R R S S S T T T T T T W W Remaining Letter Pile:B B C C H P R R S T T  = 1. A - - - I - - 2. - A - - [fishing hooks have one or more] = 3. - O A - 4. - A - - - [the object of fishing is to - A - - - fish] = 5. - E A - = 6. - I - - I - - = 7. - I - E - - E = 8. - E - = 9. - I E - = 10. - E - E A - E = 11. - O - 12. - - O - - [fishing can be a competitive - - O - -] = 13. - - A - - = 14. - E I - - -

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
