Catch & Release

The Girls 1st Fishing experience.....


Call me anti-American.  Call me what you will.  But, I have a inherent lack of understanding for this sport.  Now don't get me wrong.  I love the outdoors.  I love to boat.  I love to be with family relaxing and spending the day bonding over just about anything.  

However, I also happen to really love life, and have a hard time seeing the excitement in dangling a little treat out for some poor innocent fish soul excited to find his/her meal only to be gruesomely hooked, reeled and gawked at and then thrown back in, mouth gaping open where OUR hook, for PURE SPORT, leaves its mark........  

I don't know.  It just seems a bit barbaric.  Like I said, "call me crazy!"


At any rate, we had a great day!  The girls thought of themselves as big kids and really enjoyed this sport that I can't understand.  And, no, I didn't ruin the day for them by sharing my views so don't worry.........
