Our Oldest son shane, his wife Ginger and our two grandaughters came to visit from Maryland…and just had to squeeze a couple fishing trips in:smiley:
Managed to scout up a few reds, flounder, croaker,whiting…and blackfish…mostly fishing around the jetties…black fish were small…reeeeally small…but had fun catching them. Fished in the morning…then found a place to anchor boat and off the stern we’d all go to hang out in the water with lifejackets and ropes to cool down…haha…and had a blast. Heres a couple pics…btw…Shane now knows you dont try to “lift” a 6-7 lb flounder out of the water without a net being there…lol…yep…lesson learned and long remembered I’m sure:wink:
How to hold and remove hook from massive black fish:smiley:
Did someone say WATER??
look in front of the shrimp boat…didnt even see it there until I downloaded pic…
lol…kinley asked…hey daaaaaaad…do you feel a warm spot in the water??
Good stuff Pen! My family and I spend an awful lot of time doing the floating-behind-the-boat-hanging-onto-the-dockline thing! That, and backflip contests off the side of the boat LOL (My oldest son is WAY better than me)
…we had a blast…but forgot to remind shane to put sunscreen on his face again…hour of so floating in the water with the water reflecting on your face=ouch!
only got out for more boiled peanuts, chicken and something to drink…I was designated driver as usual so the guys enjoyed a cold blue cola…
Lucky kids, parents and grandparents, great day! Not many kids have a grammaw who can teach then how to fish, throw a castnet, catch crabs and cook what you catch, and a patient grandad who can fix anything, and, oh yeah, a dog named Roo.Save you pics, Penny, you have a picture book there.
