Joey Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Met up with Terry out from Gilford today. It was a tad bit cold this morning as can be seen by my lovely mug of hot chocolate. Perch came in schools, on and off all day. As soon as I heard the boys say here comes some fish, both watching their respective fishfinders, they hit. Mostly small but there were some keepers. This is one of the smaller ones - not a keeper, kind of looks angelic in the sunbeams lighting up my clam Terry thinks he has a nice big jumbo on, then realizes it is bigger than a perch. Finally he yells out its a pike, and figures he'll not be able to land it on the light tackle he has. Play by play pics and like a pro, Terry lands her Paul and Terry yakking. Me out of my hut for a short moment. Then Terry gets a nice perch, biggest of the day. My take home fish. Terry taking off after a lovely day of fishing. Got home and started to filet and my cat had other ideas. He sat there from start to finish and ate about 2 whole perch sushi He's my best friend now. The bag on the left is the pike (Thanks Terry ) and the bag on the right are the perch. Going to get the pan warming in a minute ready for a fry Hope we see you out there again next weekend Terry. Cheers, Joey

Did he break anything?? lol No, I kept him in line today Wayne, but he did keep calling out your name periodically, then cried like a baby and went into the fetal position. We talked him through it tho. Joey

Leecher Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 Great report and pics Joey Loved the play by play pics of Terry landing the gator on light tackle WTG Terry Great job you guys and thanks for sharing Leechman
Ron Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) You were so close to us Sunday, you could have hit us with a snowball! Never you guys were out there, nor did you know we were. That is Cupcakes blue clam over your shoulder. My hut is hidden by your beautiful mug. Edited January 12, 2009 by Ron
Headhunter Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 Thanks for the report Joey! Sunday looked like a prefect day to get out, alas, it was not in the cards for me! I still can't beleive Paul caught a fish though! LMAO! Re the cat... one of the funniest things I recall about my cat was the time I came home from Cooks Bay with a bucket of perch. The fish as the bottom of the bucket were frozen solid and as I was cleaning them, they began to thaw out. Well, my cat came down stairs to see what all that smell was about, climbed up the side of the bucket, just in time for one of the frozen fish, to start flopping in the bucket. I swear that cat jumped 4 feet straight into the air! Heck, I'm still laughing about that one! HH
douG Posted January 12, 2009 Report Posted January 12, 2009 Very nice shots, Joanne, the one of the cocoa was fabulous. Nice to see Terry and Paul again with fish too. Thanks for your post.
