thats a great pix of 2 great kids!
Great shot of the little ones JB and always like to see the families together in shots.........
The only fish I ever sent straight into the ground was a carp from Lake Michigan (caught along Jones Island, in the Port of Milwaukee; don't think I'd eat anything out of there); the three BG joined five more the next evening, to a call of "Get in my belly!"
Our nanny cleaned them. She has kind of a fast-but-not-good way of doing it: she cut them open to one side of the belly, scooped the guts out through the hole, then chopped the fins off with a meat cleaver and scaled the fish. Over in a flash, but I prefer to cut them open along the centerline from mouth to the end of the abdominal cavity and remove the gills and everything, while still leaving the head on. Then I scale them.
I'd never waste a perfectly good BG as fertilizer :-)
Truly adorable. So..who prepped them and made a light snack out of the three BG? Or did those three went straight into the ground as fertilizer?
THAT"S a photo to cherish!
This is a great and precious photo! Wonderful!
JB enjoy them I can tell you from experience as many others they grow up fast enjoy the moment..
You don't know the half of it, LH :-) It's really hard to keep more than one of them actually line-wet at a time due to tangles and what not, so I told Theresa (pictured) and Jessica (not pictured) that if they hit their homework targets of being done by the time I got home from work, I'd take them fishing at the local ponds. Yesterday was Theresa's turn, and Diana (the three year old) headed for her room, threw herself down on her bed, and had a crying fit when told it wasn't her turn to go fishing today :-)
It was kind of a short day because when I stopped in at Wally World all the had was redworms and nightcrawlers, and the person I'd seen catching BG the day before (first person I've ever seen catch a fish there in 2 years :p) told me wax worms are what works in there, and pretty much nothing else seems to. So I got out my phone and found there was a Petsmart around the corner and they had waxies so off I went. When I got there, I found they had crickets, too, so maybe I'll get to try those out tonight. Figure I'll just bring my 16' crappie pole and not even bother with casting.
Assuming Jessica is done with her homework when I get home, of course :-)
Awesome pic - you are very fortunate, kids that like fishin
