Nice fish David; tell her congrats.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Nice fish, DavidV! I have young grandkids, so I like seeing what you've done to make it fun for the younger set. They aren't always interested in fishing, especially if it takes more than 60 seconds to get a bite. By the way, I am a Rice grad as well. Yes, I was there when we whipped the Aggies, it was totally wild! The MOB (Marching Owl Band for non-Owl readers) saluted the A&M dog mascot Reveille at halftime by forming a giant fire hydrant formation and marching to the tune, "Oh Where oh Where Has My Little Doggie Gone?" Good times. The Aggies scored late to go ahead, and their cheerleaders went wild. Reveille sprang up to bark his approval, as well. But then we ran the kickoff back for the game winning TD, much to the consternation of A&M supporters everywhere! (I couldn't tell for sure, but it looked like Reveille embarrassed himself right there on the field.) The Aggies didn't appreciate the game nor the band's homage to Reveille. In fact, police vans were needed to carry the MOB out from the stadium after the game. Dog lovers can get a little testy sometimes, but I still think their bark is worse than their bite.

^^^ That was an unforgettable game. My youngest had her 16th birthday at our place today. Had 17 of her schoolmates there! (Ms. Boss has been toiling about this party for weeks). They are camping in tents tonight. Many of her friends (urbanites) have never been fishing, four wheeling, canoing, etc. until today. While I was working on the fish feeder after an apparent hog attack, I witnessed a great happening. Those kids that had never fished caught fish and you should have heard them celebrate. Too squeamish to unhook so my daughter helped them with that. Made me feel pretty good.
