Anxiously awaiting the after pic. Raining here off and on; I was going down to the river to watch fireworks and fish but doubt they'll be going off. Arthur left a nice mess here; I like the rain!
BTW, I went fishing with Mr. Cocoa's husband and wife friends on Monday at some place near the Cape. Rose's reel never screamed but she pulled in a flounder and a snapper; I was so surprised because she was just gently playing her line and then there they were coming out on of the water. They were under sized so tossed back. The guys got their bait stolen several times; they were too busy talking I guess. We were all discouraged but a few hours into the excursion my rod bailed with a mud minnow went nuts! The guy fishing beside us said I needed help; Mr. Cocoa said I didn't because I'd handle it or not.
Which I did.
Those nights using fried chicken for bait paid off; I learned how to hook a fish. Even if it was just 3 catfish then...
Snapper, barely legal size, was beyond delicious that night.
