Lake Cumberland next month on a houseboat trip. Fingers crossed. Especially no gar.And sometimes when you take them fishing you dont have time to catch.
Years ago when the kids were little, we took them to a hotspot. One of those places you almost cant help but catch. I literally caught 2 fish in the span of 90 minutes. Because I spent the rest of my time either baiting or removing things from hooks.
It was me, Mrs Monkey, and the two little monkeys. And I was the only one who could bait or remove. Literally every 90 seconds I was having to either bait or remove a fish from somebody else's hook. Sometimes I'd remove one fish and replace a worm, only to turn around and have to remove somebody else's fish. Lather rinse repeat All evening.
Man, that was a great day.
Sadly, the last time we went right before covid, fishing sucked. The native species were being run off by Gobis and if you did catch anything, that was all you caught. (Lake Erie)
Fingers crossed when we go back in August its better.
