Fishing and driftwood

[LSUh20fowler]

Made a fishing trip this morning. I was foggy and humid. Caught these two. One on a fluke and the other dragging a worm on bottom around cypress trees. Lake is way down right now and I'm an addict to driftwood. So I loaded the boat up with driftwood and one cypress that has been under the water for a while.

Wood is an ever fascinating material. Gazing into a piece of wood, is like gazing into a campfire, or up at clouds passing by. It's all in our genes, I think.

looks like nice catch. did he go into the fry pan? or catch and release?

He went back in the water to fight another day.

Here's a true fish story. Starts out on the lawn. We have ground moles here, and we're getting poisonous worms to put into the ground where the tunnels are. Ground mole eats them, then dies.
So, I got to thinking about fishing, and worms, and . . . . .

Now, I'm looking for worms that are poisonous, AND can be trained to clean fish. :wink:
