Fishing With Don

Go fishing with Don!

Oh boy, what the Hell is up with me lately. Not able to land one simple decent fish in weeks, it hurts I tell you.

Last week end, we made it back to gate 43 at Quabbin. There is only a few weeks left at Quabbin since it closes late October, and on top of it, I won’t be able to be in the middle of Quabbin without any signal on my cell phone starting the next 2-3 weeks as the baby birth is getting real close now. We’ll probably go to Quaboag this week end and then Gate 31 next week end, then I need to stay close from home or I am a dead man

Saturday was not such of a good day. Cold and rain in the morning for like 3-4 hours…oh yeah, you gotta love fishing to be out there in this type of weather, no kidding.

But as always, Don pulled it off. Don’t expect any picture of me, I caught 2 fish I think, and really it would have been a waste taking pictures of it. I missed quite a few, but until it’s in the boat, it does not count right?

So here it is:

This one is a 1.9lb smallmouth:

Then a smaller largemouth:

Then he caught this 2.2lb largemouth:

and finally this beautiful 3.1lb largemouth near “The Spot”:

I previously said, Don took his long time friend Dennis fishing a few weeks this Summer and in September when I could not make it. Dennis caught quite a few nice fish, from what I heard, because if I am solely relying on the picture Don took, I am not really sure how big Dennis’s fish were!!!

This one was a over 3lb largemouth bass - Dennis’ largest catch ever (right?):

To me, that counts as half the size since that’s all we can see! hehe.

Dennis, I feel your disappointment, i’ve been there, Don’s got big fingers and can’t see well, so he’s got a tough time to take the shot….HAHAHAHAAH, JUST KIDDING DON!!!

Dennis, if you have pictures, feel free to get me some of the pictures you took so I can post it on the blog…as long as they are not pictures Don took cause we need to see the fish WOW, shot #2 Don!

Alright guys, off to get some work done, thanks for reading!
