My Brother In Law from Denver is visiting. He hasn't been fishing for years. So I took him and my 88 year old Father In Law fishing today.

It was kinda slow but we all caught some fish and kept enough bass for another fry. It was good to see them having some fun together. I feel very blessed that I have In laws that we all get along well together.

Had to take care of a coon I caught at my bird feeder before we left. Hope it was the one that dug up and ate a bunch of my garlic starts.
My brothers and I usually went duck hunting Thanksgiving morning.
Whose doing some hunting and fishing over Thanksgiving? Share pictures if you do.

I had a couple DP's attached to the big hunk of steel. And I had a couple of MB450's on a long chain and pre-hooked drag by a bird seed block. I thought they were far enough apart. But he was able to drag that hunk of steel far enough to tangle them up.
