This morning we went fishing at Utah Lake. The bite was good but not excellent. I am helping grandpa bring in his big catfish. Grandpa played the fish like a pro, good thing because the fish was barely hooked. I was just thinking don't mess this up. What ever you do get this fish on the shore. I have unfortunately missed a couple of Grandpa's big fish........ oops ! My goal is to only mess up one more time. Lets hope it does not happen this summer.
Success !! Great team work. Grandpa has caught more big catfish than anyone else in the family. Sorry Hammer but grandpa has you beat ! Ha!
Check out my big fish. Wow !! I only caught a few little catfish but had great success with the white bass.
Richie had good luck throwing a jig. He caught many white bass and a couple of small mouth bass. It sure was nice to have him come along. I remember spending many days fishing with Grandpa as a kid. I loved fishing in the ocean.
I have caught some small mouth bass but not one this big. Richie was working his bass magic today. I threw some jigs and did not catch ONE fish on the jig.
Lynne also hooked into one of the big catfish. She did a nice job of playing the fish before I could net the fish. Richie is also holding one of the small bass he caught.
Check out Lynne's Walleye. We have caught bigger at this spot but just catching this species is a great time. They are incredible predators and have very large teeth. As you can notice I am holding her fish away from the body to protect me from its large teeth.
Here is our catch ! We are looking forward to a fish fry tomorrow. So far Grandpa and Lynne have the biggest catfish of the season. Hammer you have your work cut out.

ReplyDeleteWe all had a great time at the Lake. Actually Lynne caught the biggest catfish. We will be going more often now that the weather is warm.Grandpa
ReplyDeletewe had a good time at the Lake. However, I did not get the biggest fish. I got two tiny fish. The pesky bugs were out and so was the sun, but as the picture shows, I was wearing my new hat, so I did not get sunburned. Love to you all!
