I absolutely LOVE fishing!
I am always the one in the family to suggest fishing. We have a boat, but I am also quite happy walking down to the lake and throwing in a line. I have even been known to drive past the lake, see crabpots in there, and call the family on the mobile and tell them to “get down there!”
But my favourite fishing spot was when I was a teenager. My Dad had just bought a half cabin, and the 6 of us would go out in the bay to fish for Flathead.
Back in those days, I wouldn’t even think about touching bait! Everyone else had to bait my hooks for me. But I think that was fair, seeing as I caught the most fish!!
The thing was though, I would leave them down there that long, my Dad would tell me the fish drowned while attached to my hook.
I don’t care how I caught them, but I caught the most every trip. O.K., so I didn’t bait the hooks, and didn’t take the ‘dead’ fish off the hook after I brought them up, BUT I CAUGHT THEM!
You just ask my Dad. If you really, really need to, you can find him via…
