Dwight came down to fish this time




Well Dwight (Terry's brother) came down to go fishing and we had a great time... that is until Dwight got a fish stuck in him. NOT GOOD!

He was trying to get the fish out of the landing net and as he was flinging the fish into the box it stuck him with it's fin. He's in pain and not happy about it. Course we fileted all the fish and he took them home so when he takes a bite now he can say take that you stupid fish. See what you get for putting a fin in me?

By the way in case you didn't know it. When you get stuck by a catfish you usually swell up. There is some discussion about catfish having poison in their fins. When they stick you most people end up with a swollen place and purple and blue. Dwight got lucky. It bled pretty good (almost made me sick) and I think he'll survive to fish again.

Unfortunately he had to cut his fishing trip short. They didn't get to go handpole fishing. :( By the way ... the wet spot on his pants is where water was coming out of the dip net when he was dipping fish.
