Fishing Trip on the James
I went fishing last week w/ a bunch of guys I work with at the Fire Department on the James River. We had a blast and the float we did lasted about 9 hours. We caught a lot of fish, but the big one of the day was this musky. It is the biggest fish I have ever caught out of the river and it weighed somewhere around 12-15 lbs. It took a while to get him in the boat, but the guy that was in the boat w/ me did all the work while I just prayed we could land it. This was my actually the first musky I had ever seen and it was a pretty impresive fish with its teeth that you know could just take your hand or fingers right off. We took some pictures of it, and than released it to be caught another day. The guy I was with Jon believes it is the same musky that he caught a couple years ago as his first musky so that was pretty cool. Now I have to say I am getting hooked on musky fishing and I can not wait to go again. We will be heading to the OBX tomorrow to stay thru the weekend so hopefully I will get to do some fishing there as well. This will be Noahs second trip to the beach and I hope he enjoys it as much as the first.

Now, I am glad you have a picture because the story might make a person think "yes it got away".
Have fun at the beach......
Love Grandmama
You guys need to get out in the sun more.
I can't believe you did not scare the fish off with all that bright white skin.
