FISHING ON LAKE FORK



For our 5th anniversary we went on a fishing trip to Lake Fork. Dusty and Mely stayed with Grandma and Papa while we hit the water. The weather did not cooperate one bit, but we toughed it out panchos and all. J.D. caught 4 large mouth bass; the largest being 5 lbs. I was a little less fortunate catching a channel cat and perch. No matter what the fishing reports said we found that live bait such as frogs caught in our boat, lizards on our porch and something called a water dog worked the best. I had it all planned out to spend our anniversary going to a nice dinner with dancing at what they called the "billy bobs of east texas." On arrival I felt like I was straight out of the movie Urban Cowboy. Its never good when the waitress brings your dinner and asks you to break open your catfish to make sure its cooked b/c "they've had some problems with that earlier today." Needless to say I stuck with my curly fries and hushpuppies.
