2012 Aug 5 - Fishing with my Brother-in-law

My sister Mary, her husband Dick, and daughter Aimee came up to Maine and spent the weekend with us. Dick hasn't fished in freshwater for years so we couldn't wait to show him how good the fishing is in Maine.  Unfortunately, it was August and hot out, so the fishing was not very good on the first day.  The next day, I went out with them to bring Dick some good luck.  We weren't out too long before Dick hooked into a nice bass.  It was a beauty - 2-1/2 lb largemouth!  I was  responsible for the camcorder (which I don't use very often), so in my haste to get his catch filmed, I messed up and didn't get a picture of his bass :-(

I did get pictures of a couple of his other fish that day, but not the big one!  Sorry Dick  - you will have to come back and try again next year.
