So... I called in sick today...

[tk2kewl]

:evilgrin:

Jigged up some herring and live-lined them... lots of bass!

1. Nice catch. Good fishing rig you've got there, too.

Lake? Or was it REAL fishing, on the ocean?

:P :P

:hi:

3. Ocean outeside of Jones Inlet on Long Island.

Jigged up some free bait (herring) and caught a bunch of striped bass.

5. Hah. I knew it was striper.

My dad's favorite to fish for. He's a geek about those crazy fish, and he hardly ever catches them, either. :D

[tk2kewl]

6. Is your dad in Oregon too?

I didn't know there were stripers there.

On edit: oops Maine, not Oregon. Probably a bit too far north for good striper fishing.

10. Heh!

There are plenty of the bastard fish around here. My dad just has terrible fishing mojo.

:rofl:

2. Is that what you caught on your sick day?

I called out sick today, as well.

:hi:

4. I caught a fish (or ten) to go with my cold.

:evilgrin:

7. I'm envious

I hope the nice catch took some of the sting out of feeling miserable.

9. You could say that...

:evilgrin:

gotta use those "mental-health" days once in a while.

Especially when it's nearly 50° in December. :P

8. I'm envious

I hope the nice catch took some of the sting out of feeling miserable.

11. Sweet!

Well done!

A bad day fishing beats a good day of work anytime and a good day of fishing beats damn near everything.

12. Absolutely...

it's been a nice bass season. The boat is probably coming out next week, and I'll spend the winter making plans for some tuna next summer.
