The last time I took my family fishing it was very relaxing we didn't catch any fish... Saw lots of bait fish and fish jumping on water surface.... Took my family fishing again this afternoon, this time I was prepared... live gizzard shad caught the first fish keeper striper in 4 fow... whole gizzard live but cut to bleed and threaded on 7/0 octopus hook in 6-8 fow caught good fish, a fat hybrid, 4 blue catfish up to 7 lb.... not bad for 3 hours of fishing, everyone caught fish the weather was a cool 70 degree... Very pleasant until wind stop and mosquitoes were out shortly after sunset, and we packed up and headed to pizza Hut on our way home.

Why do I go fishing? To catch a box of fish and/or some quality time under the sun. Thank Heaven I never fail fishing in Texas, catching box fish or plenty of sunburn.

I bet it was a nice evening to be out- Glad to see you were able to get the family out-
What has happed to you does not define who you are-
HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Nice outing tho! oh man, that was my first time grilling a hybrid without removing scale and guts... we almost throw away the fish, the belly oil melt the fish organs to mud, but luckily there were no bad odors at all... chopped the stomach part out, what's left was succulent sweet meet that just fall off the bone. I'll definitely leave the scales on next time, but will remove the guts before putting the fish on the grill.
