Just want to fish.

On a nice Sunday morning I was sitting outside on the porch thinking about what I could do. I hopped on my bike and rode around for a while and all I kept thing about was fishing. No body was around so I grabbed my rod and went to a pretty big river close to where I lived. I really can not stand worms so when I found one I hooked it while it was still on the ground so I would not have to touch it. I cast my line and sit and just think how great it would be if I was a fisherman when I grew up. Before too long I had a hit and I reeled it in but there was nothing on the hook. Whatever hit took my worm and I had to get another one so I went through the same process and cast my line. I waited for at least 3 hours and got another hit but this time I waited a few extra seconds and then it hit again and I hooked it and reeled it in with a little bit of a fight. It was a pretty big carp and had to weigh about 5 pounds and I looked at it and threw it back and did not catch another one the rest of the day.

Out fishing on the bay.

When I was 14 I was on vacation down the shore in Jersey and one day my dad had an idea to rent a small boat and go out in the bay and do a little fishing. Only 3 of us went and my dad grabbed some drop lines for crabbing and his rod and my friend I had there came with us and brought his 2 rods because I did not have one. We stopped at the tackle shop for some bait and headed to the bay and loaded up the boat. I have always gotten sea sick so I took dramamine and was fine. We set up and cast our lines and my dad used some chicken legs on the drop lines for the crabs. The day past as we reeled in some nice blue fish and about a half bushel of blue claw crabs. We really had a good time and went back to the house and had a feast with the fish and crabs we caught with some pasta and salad.

Stop and fish.

One day when I was about 13 my friends and I were riding our bikes next to a river. We really weren't doing anything so we decided to go back home for our fishing rods and go back to the river. We got back and we found what we thought would be a good spot to fish. We did not have any live bait because we had no idea what and if we were going to catch anything so we just put on a lure. Most of the day past and someone finally caught a good sized carp which he threw back. That is all that was caught that day but we had a great time fishing.

Nothing to do but fish

One Saturday morning my friends and I were just sitting around doing nothing and I suggested we go to the lake and do little fishing. They agreed and we got our gear and headed out. At the time we were young and really had no clue what to use as bait so my friend suggested that we use corn. We did and caught a few fish that someone called sun fish and a couple trout. We threw them all back and we really had a great time at the lake all day just talking,joking around and fishing.
