I finally got my fishing mojo back today. After 3 hours of "pimpling" on Lake Five we limited out on Kokanee Salmon. I could not overcome my son's early lead by 3 fish. I did rally to tie and take the lead for a short time but flustered at the loss of two fish nearly out of the hole, I lost my composure and could not muster another comeback before the bite died off.
But to keep things in perspective, these are not sport fish really. For us, this is light duty, a diversion to keep us sharp for the coming season. This is meat fishing, its whats for supper and if you fail you can always pop a can of Stag Chili. These fish do not have a prayer once they are out of the hole, the are beginning their journey down my Homo Sapien digestive tract.
Once we were home we promptly cleaned the fish, half of which were baked, the rest went in the freezer for another day. My heart is working better already with the Omega whatever you call 'ems now running free in my bloodstream. Nice fishy.
