Fishing...seriously...

Okay, I admit it... I have always said I hated fishing. Boring. Smelly. Involving bugs. What's to like? Well...apparently it's all about perspective :-)

See the pond ... this is where I spent last Sunday ... fishing. Yep. On a boat, even. Go ahead...take a moment and absorb that...or just laugh like hell.



Anyway... now that you thought you were done laughing...

Check out the smart ass ... most people grab the biggest fish and say, "Take my picture!" Nope, not this one! He grabs the smallest fish (which, yes, was one of mine) and holds it up, grinning like a goober!




Now, I should mention that I did, in fact, catch some fish. Three as a matter of fact. I bait my own hook ... with crickets or worms or whatever that stinky crap is. I can tie on a hook and set my own bobber. I will not, I repeat, NOT touch the fish. This was a source of endless entertainment; you know for the little-fish-holding goober mentioned earlier. Although not nearly as much entertainment as my very nearly falling in the pond as I tried to get out of the boat. I am so amusing...



Anyway, between me, little fish goober and his aunt & uncle, we ended up with a whole mess of tasty fish...which of course had to be cleaned. Not by me, naturally, cause you know...I don't touch them till they are deep fried and crispy. But they did get cleaned ...while I entertained myself practicing my photography skills...

more later.....
