Chix-N-Stix

On Saturday, I fished with Molly, Daryl and Rachael in the annual Chix-N-Stix women-only ladyfish tournament this weekend. It was fun, and I fished quite well if I do say so myself. We didn't win but we got 10 ladyfish weighing 13.9 lbs. Not too bad. I got the first fish in the boat and I even got two fish on at once from a line with two hooks! Most of all, we had a great time. Thanks girls!

 

 

My first big catch

Today was the first day Scott and I have had off together since September 7th, so we decided to go out on the boat with his parents to go fishing. I wasn't really expecting to catch anything, but I pulled in a catfish early. Not too exciting, I know. But at our second fishing spot we were seeing more interesting fish swimming around. After 30 minutes or so, I started feeling a tug on the line. Then all of a sudden the line went out of control. This was my first big fish, so Scott and his dad came over to help me out. This thing was running like a shark was chasing it and swimming all around the boat. I had to circle it twice before I got it in the net. It ended up being a 10-15 pound jack.
