And so IT begins. . .

Tyler and I took the boat out over the weekend for the first time this year. Isn't she a beauty? Our neighbor was wondering if our huge truck is would be able to haul it. Needless to say our truck did fine. We set out to catch the much sought after wipers. The day was perfect. No breeze, hot sun, and no huge waves that would capsize our boat. We were golden. But when we set out, we noticed that people were taking off without any fish. We don't mind. We (mainly I) are out just to enjoy ourselves regardless of how much action we get. It's nice to sit out in the sun and let my iridescent skin get some much needed UV A's. A little while later, after a few false alarms with moss, we hook our first fish. We pull it up hoping to see a wiper, but to no avail .

Neither of us had ever caught a cat fish. For the record, they are REALLY ugly and they don't die. For the entire day, we caught cat fish. We didn't see any wipers at all. We felt better about it when nobody else was catching them around us either. You could tell Tyler was getting frustrated about it though. Anyways, we decided to keep two of them and give them a try. We feel a little better about eating them knowing we caught them on lures that look like fish. Tylers grandpa grew up in Missouri, so he loves them. And Mom says their good. So they can't be that bad.
