    :D Imagine that! LOL. Got some time off work, so my grandmother and I are goign to head out and do some fishing. This will be the 1st time in nearly 2 years that we have been able to spend some time on the bank. She loves to fish, and is the one that taught me to fish actually. Hopefully this will be a trend to continue the next couple of seasons, as her health has not been good as of late. Hope to have pics and a great story tonight!

    Well, the day panned out great! Didn't catch a heck of a lot, but we had a good time! My grandmother managed a handfull of gills and had a breakoff on a good carp. She landed a 9lb channel cat on one of my carp rods, best looking channel I've seen in 2 years! While she was playing that fish, my other carp rod took off and I ended up with a 20 at the net :) Managed a 13 not long after that and a break off due to an underwater tree, and that was about it. Great to be on the bank. Perfect weather. Couldn't have been much better. Pic of my 20 below!

    Even though you didn't catch a bunch, looks like you had a great day. Sounds like "Grandma" did to. Nice carp Shawn.
