The very thought makes my toes curl up.

We got all the way out to the fishing spot and realized we forgot the bait.. turned around and got it, then went all the way back. We caught quite a few, but the guilt was wearing me down and I kept asking Mama how long those fish were going to be flopping around (which annoyed her because I was making her feel just as guilty)..SO we threw them all back in the water and Mama got " all swelled up" and that was the end of our fishing expedition!!<br /><br />Love,<br />Baby SisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-68248106869683166242010-10-10T13:54:01.835-04:002010-10-10T13:54:01.835-04:00oh yeah---lemon juiceoh yeah---lemon juiceKaren Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05892103639142471595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-54146044216372222522010-10-10T13:53:25.036-04:002010-10-10T13:53:25.036-04:00love the play on words. yep I went fishing as a ki...love the play on words. yep I went fishing as a kid. my cousin cleaned them. catfish are hard to clean it was so GROSS but I loved watching him do it, because he was cute and it was fun to say EWWWW EWWWWW EWWWW over and over again.Karen Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05892103639142471595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-4472068159065083042010-10-10T11:04:14.545-04:002010-10-10T11:04:14.545-04:00I remember helping my grandfather clean the catch ...I remember helping my grandfather clean the catch when we visited him and he went surf fishing -- I think you call them smelt on the east coast?<br /><br />Here's a photo of what that looks like: <br /><br />http://www2.wi.net/~census/OR-Yachats%20Smelt%20Fishing.jpg<br /><br />Other than that I last caught a fish when I was about 12, and I cried.

I haven't been fishing since last summer. Did not catch a thing, not even a shoe. Sadly, we can't eat the fish from the river, so we just throw them back.deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462551016440715970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-20600280305506623202010-10-10T01:49:55.190-04:002010-10-10T01:49:55.190-04:00Missed a question --

I have taken fly-casting lessons since that time and failed.<br />I have no idea how to get the smell of fish off. Just keep showering until cats no longer follow you.<br />Nice camouflaged heron.
