I've been on hiatus from blogging because, well, I'm still fishing and hanging out on Lake St. Clair with Don and as fun as it is for me, I'm sure ya'll are getting bored with the same ole stories and pictures.
Here's a few pics from yesterday.
First, my biggest perch I ever caught. I had him in one hand, but before Don could snap the picture, he slipped out and landed on his head. Take two, same thing! That's why I'm holding that sucker with two hands. BTW, that glow isn't photo-shopped. I'm getting tan and the sun was glowing orange just before going down. It was a beautiful sunset.
We've been fishing out by the channel and I love watching the huge-ass freighters go by. Don pointed out this one as being 1,000 feet long. I started taking pictures as it was coming towards us. Don decided to cross the channel to fish on the other side. Perfect opportunity to take a front shot. Perfect time to pray we don't run out of gas or stall.
Look at our wake, yes, we were that close! Captain Don had it under control as I was snapping away. I did however have an escape plan in mind ... just in case. It involved a test of my jumping and diving skills. [smirk]

My brother used to go through the wake of a giant ferry and it used to thrill and terrify me.
You look great! so very tan and healthy! :)
The entire blogosphere seems to be off fishing. At least the bloggers I read have slowed down.
Glad to hear you're having fun. Fishing is always relaxing ... even when they're not biting.
You're lookin' great!! Life is agreeing with you in so many ways. Now, as for holding on to a slippery fish...two hands are always better than one!! ;)
