If you know my husband and his Dad, you will know that hunting and fishing is what they do best! I was never really a fisherman before I met Tommy. We went every once in a while when I was little but I don't ever recall catching anything! But now that I'm married to him, I'd say I'm a pretty good wife to get up at 5am to go fishing! Not really the thing I would love to be doing at 5am! So in the summer time we go fishing A Lot! Like pretty much everyday that he has off, and even some days after he gets home from work. I've gotten a pretty good hang of it, and it's pretty fun.. when I'm catching fish anyways!
This weekend, we packed the truck and Tommy's Dads boat with all our camping and fishing stuff to go fish CJ in Bruno. I was excited because I love camping.. like real camping.. in a tent! And that's what we were going to do this weekend! We fished Friday evening and then came back, set up camp and roasted hotdogs and marshmallows over a fire (one of the best parts of camping!) When we first got there, I was expecting a nice grassy camping area, but it wasn't at all! It was all rock! We pitched our tent on the only tiny patch of grass there was around! And it was on a slope so all through the night not only did we have rocks in our back the whole night, we were sliding farther and farther down in the tent.. I did not sleep very well at all and it was not very fun :( I guess I'm not as young as I thought and as I used to be!, so next time I'll plan on taking an air mattress :) Saturday morning we got up and went fishing again all day! But it was good weather, so as long as it's nice outside, I have food, and am catching fish.. I'm happy!
At CJ we mainly fish for crappie (pronounced croppy), but also caught a few perch, blue gill, and bass. But crappie are my favorite to fish!!

First catch of the trip! :) |
The biggest crappie I have caught,, ever! |
The tiniest fish caught |
Caught at the same time.. Mines bigger ;) |
The biggest bass I have ever caught, except for the one I caught and accidently dropped back in the water before I got a picture :/ |
Tommy put two hooks on his line and caught two fish.. He's Lucky! |
Hope you all enjoyed the loads of fish pictures, that probably all look the same, believe me, before I was a "fisherman" I thought the same thing.. If you've seen one, you've seen them all ;) But I've had a change of heart, and I now can even tell which fish is what!
Lucky for you I probably won't post anymore pictures of fishing (at least not this many) because there are too many trips! But just know that that's what we do all summer.. FISH!
