Hi All:
I would have included photo's of my fish from my fishing trip, but they would be BLANK. We got under way at 0545 and put our lines in the water at 0600 right on time. I was put on a boat with a husband and wife, AND a 9 year old who I tried to throw over board several times, but he kept crawling back in the boat. Was an awful trip. His parents thought he was cute in every stupid thing he did. I sure hope I was nothing like that when I was 9. I caught NO fish, so BOB, I had a $300 boat trip this time. The guide kept us out for 10 hours trying his best to put us on fish, but couldn't. The little turd caught two fish. One silver Salmon and one red salmon. His Dad caught one Red also. The mother caught none, just like me....It started raining about 2 PM and rained until we got to the dock at about 1630. I had not gone to the head in 10 hours so I ran to the Rent-a-Crapper for relief. Got in the car to get home and the gate was locked with a combination lock and no one had the combination???? After about half hour someone came along that knew the combo, and I got out of there. Got home and my sweety had a "Lord" for me and all was well. Especially after the wonderful dinner she had for me to... Sorry it was a bad fishing day. But did see some wonderful river views. Only wild stuff I saw was two eagles, and a million Sea Gulls.
All is well, but sorry no new photos' this time.....I am almost warmed up now, and dry. Glad I did go buy a pair of waterproof trousers. They worked perfect.....
Semper Fi
Don, Amy, Pharaoh, & No Salmon....
Finally signed in. Great blogs. Sorry about the fishing, but it made a great funny story. I remember how cold we were when we finished. 6 hours was about all I could handle. Out fished by a 9 yr old.....thats gotta hurt. Hey, the last time on the glacier, you did not take the cane as we tried to convince you to. But you did good. Luckily you had a nurse with you.
ReplyDeleteis that bob? if so, heya, bob.
ReplyDeletetoo bad that little brat could not have been used for bait. i am reminded of something similar which happened to my sister donna while she vacationed at galveston island one summer.
she had ventured out into waist-deep water, and was enjoying the thrill of being lifted up by in-coming waves when a young boy came along beside her. he immediately began to brag about this and that, she said, like precocious children will do. and then at one point he fingered a house key on a chain around his neck and informed her (like she really wanted to know) that this was his house key.
"oh yeah?" she asked.
"oh yeah", the kid replied. then he continued with such confidence and authority, sis could not help but laugh to herself.
"i been out on a lot of fishing boats."
