A Tale of Two Trips

[RLCRAPPIE]

This past Friday we took a short little road trip over to the Big D. Didn't find many spawning fish on beds, we had to hunt and peck on brush piles - 2 or 3 here and there - they were scattered. We ended up with a good mess and 14 or 15 of them were real grown ups. Yesterday, I took my son and grandson out to Beaver and we were really ready to ripem - guess what - we only caught 7 fish. You know they say fisherman are full of excuses and here goes mine -I fished a part of the lake in order to avoid the crowds that I was not familiar with. The truth is I couldn't find them. However, we really had a great time together. (My grandson said to make his picture since he caught this one all by himself). I certainly didn't have the heart to tell him it was only a green carp.
