My favorite uncle's taking me, my son, and a friend of mine from South Africa fishing today.  I can't wait to come back and tell you my fishing story!  I ain't baiting any hooks!  He uses crickets.  If it was worms, I could handle it, but I just can't bring myself to stick a cricket.

In my youth, I was considered a great master baiter (I could even bait one handed); but, if you can't handle the action ~ try artifical. Locally, we have a Priscilla's

Tell me a story,, did you learn any tricks?.  Photos?,,,, Any day fishing is a good day. Not as good as a pay day,,,,, but a second best.

Capt. Jack, we had a great time!  The weather was beautiful (around 80 degrees with no humidity and not a cloud in the sky).  The pond was in the middle of a cow pasture though, so we had to be careful where we stepped and sat.  We fished for three hours and I didn't catch a freaking fish until right before we left.  Only got about 2 or 3 nibbles prior to that.  My son, my friend and my uncle were pulling them out left and right!  I don't know what was up with that!  But I did manage to get some worms too so I could at least bait my and my son's hooks.  They kept my uncle busy, though, because he was the only one who'd get the fish off the hooks.  We all caught bream except for one large mouth bass my uncle caught.  It was still a great day, though.  I love to fish, but the point of the day was to take my friend, who's recently divorced.  She has no family in the United States and very few friends, so I wanted her to have a good day.  She's been kinda down lately.  I'll post the pics as soon as she e-mails them to me.

Outstanding report,,, Friends & family fishing,, Priceless.

 

God created earth,,,75% of the surface of earth is water,,, (I think God  would want us to spend 75% of our time fishing)

Is there a CliffsNotes version of Sippy's Moby Dick post?

That looked like about five paragraphs all smashed together.
