Yes..i'm still fishing....

Thought I'd do a quick post since it's been almost a month and I've had a few people ask if I'm still fishing (since I haven't been posting). The answer is absolutely YES!! Actually I would have to say I'm fishing at least 5 days a week at least and had some AWESOME catches that I'll share when I update in the next day or two. We just returned from a week long trip to visit family and have some family fun (and it was 7 long days of now fishing...started twitching by the end and must have made a comment at every lake and river we passed).

Summer has just been so busy with outing with the kids (that I somehow always manage to make into semi fishing trips.....tricky mom) that by the end of the day I'm done and vegging (but I'm going to put an effort forward to bring the laptop on the couch with me and get this done everyday).

I received my 2 Newest Avid Angler Awards yesterday in the mail - one for my 21.5" bass (I'll post pictures and tell the story next post) and one for a Yellow perch. So....thus far I'm up to 5 awards this season...and and itching to get a Walleye and Small Mouth awards as well.

In prep of getting back out tonight for a couple casts (heck we haven't even been home 24 hours) I had to go out and get a new rod today. I was ready to go all expensive...and get a really good rod ...but honestly...after I tested and tried them all...I still wanted my simple orange EB Ellipse 19.99 rod....(I'm not good with change....lol). Ended up splurging on polarized fishing sunglasses instead :) I figure is something is working (like my pretty orange rod) don't change it...

Off for dinner so we can get out there after and catch SOMETHING!
