What I did over the weekend

Basically, I went fishing with my youngest son.  We go to a little pond that is stocked with Large Mouth Bass/Small Mouth Bass, Red Belly Perch, and some Bluegills.  We use live worms mostly although I am trying out some fake worms and a brown lizard.  I had one Large Mouth Bass strike on the lizard, he was measured at 16inches and probably weighed 4-6 lbs.

My son caught a Small Mouth Bass and the Red Belly Perch along with a handful of Bluegills.  He loves fishing and everything outdoors.  He is destined for a life with the Fish and Game Division!!! He isn’t shy about handling the live worms, he doesn’t quite know how to attach them to the hook but that will come soon enough. He wants to start using lures but I don’t think he is quite ready for them. Maybe next summer.

We also celebrated his end of the season soccer team party. He had a blast with all his teammates. He has gotten a lot better over the last three soccer seasons, especially this past one. He is much more aware of his surroundings and is better and defense.

As you can see, I had a nice weekend, I hope you did as well. Let me know what you did by leaving me a comment below.
