Another Eel?



Fishing again. We didn't catch much today. Nothing worth keeping anyway. MainMan hooked something big that jumped out of the water and got away. Now, that was a keeper. Wonder what it was.

Hi, #2, I sure would like a drink. Like the drink in your hand. Really. I do. Yeah, sure. LOL

Got another eel. Yep, got an American Eel (these guys must know we be Amurikans!). It was almost dark-the end of a long day. Mind you this eel was small compared to the first one. The first one was too heavy to get on the dock with just the rod, so I had to grab the line and pull it up. And it did eventually break the line, so it was probably over 8 pounds. This one wasn't as big. When I hooked it, I handed the rod to #1 and said, hey, there is a fish on here, bring it in. He though there wasn't anything but rather just hooked some sort of bush or something . . . because it was NOT wanting to come in. They tend to fight and bend the rod. But, #1 got it in. And yep, it was an eel.



#1 thought it would be funny to show the cat the eel. Poor cat. He had no idea what it was but he knew he wanted NOTHING to do with it.

Nope, the chair is there so I don't have to sit on the dock . . . cause I like comfort. I put the other chair out there too. Now, I sit on the chair and fish-or read.

And while A/C would be nice, it's not happening.
