There’s not many things better than relaxing after deer season by hitting the woods with a pole instead of a bow, and loading up a stringer! My buddies David and Chad joined me for a morning of fishing at one of our Granger Lake honey holes, and boy was the bite on. We totaled 40 fish, and I even had a streak where I landed and put 6 whites on the stringer in 7 casts!
I’d also like to take this moment to tell the world that on this glorious day of January 28th, in the year of our lord two thousand and eighteen, I caught more fish than David did. This will likely never happen again, so let me have my moment here! You can be fishing next to this guy with the same rod, reel, line, terminal tackle and underwear, and still catch one fish for every five of his…it’s ridiculous!
To make matters even better, the day ended with 22 fish for me, 12 for David, and 6 for Chad, who in his defense was much newer to this particular fishing venue. We also managed to forage some delicious wild onions, and even stumbled upon a chile pequin that hadn’t died in the winter frost! What option were we left with as freedom loving Americans, than to celebrate our bounty with Mexican-ish food? Fish tacos, and spicy Modelo beers to wash them down? Yes please!
