Nice thread, you said wimmens was invited, so sheriff, please don’t let them shoot me.
My husband and I love fishing, though we never find enough time. Many moons ago, when we were first married, we wanted a boat. I started saving, just before our first anniversary; I went to order our boat. The salesman assured me that it would come in on time, for my big surprise. Well, as things go, the trailer arrived, but not the boat. So I hid the trailer, and waited for my husband. As, we rounded the corner, and he seen the trailer, his face lit up. Then he looks at me, and says, “Where’s the boat?” with the look that implied I don’t have to wait another year for the boat, do I? We picked up the boat two days later, and have been enjoying it for years.
The walleye that my husband is holding was caught on Lake Erie, and is hanging on our den wall. Al, he does bottom bounce on the Detroit River, in the earlier spring.
The pike I am holding was caught on Grass Lake, Michigan - which is up by Fletcher’s pond. The pike was released, as we don’t eat pike in the summer and he wasn’t big enough to join the walleye on the wall.
We mainly catch and release. Although we do enjoy an occasional fish fry.
