The picture that you see to your right... that's me! It's not the best picture in the world, but it's the only one I managed to take the whole day.
I made the first catch of the day!!!
Look, it's almost as big as Prince Charming!

Prince Charming then decided that he would catch the TWO biggest fish of the day.
I continued only catching fish like the one above - as large as my husband...
Then we had a visitor! Bug came down and gave me a break (I was losing... bad.) She told P.C. that she wanted to "do that too" (Which really meant reeling it in.) Boy was she surprised when a fish was on the other end! (Her fish was like mine hahaha) We took pictures and after we convinced her that the fish wouldn't eat her, she decided she wanted to touch it. I continued only catching fish like the one above - as large as my husband...
She eventually got really brave and decided that she wanted to throw it back. P.C. held the body while she tried to get a hold on the tail. Her first attempt at holding it was pinching it by the VERY end of the tail. Poor fishie fell into the grass. Slimy and all though, the second try was a success!
Prince Charming and I also had some deep conversation while we were out there fishing. We pondered over the question: "Wonder what the fish are thinking during their time above the water? Wonder what they say when they get back down to their little fish world?" We decided that maybe they think of it like an "alien abduction" (I just kept going toward the light... I tried, but I couldn't stop! Then there were these strange, large creatures that kept poking and prodding me while talking in their strange language...) and occasionally, like for the five fish now in my refrigerator, "Bob never made it back..."
