I know how he feels about fishing....it has always been one of my very favorite things to do. I use to love fishing along the creeks, but they are so dirty now we just don't go there. Loved to go night fishing. You know, I could sit there with a pole in my hand for hours and solve all the worlds problems. I really love ice fishing too. Haven't been fishing for quite some time, may have to go clean up my poles.

Janet! I didn't have any idea that you liked fishing!!! We love night fishing too! I've gone fishing all night long many many times - and Gary goes night fishing in the summer sometimes when it is way too hot during the day. I don't go as much anymore as I used to but still enjoy it.

Gary mostly fishes for catfish, where you just bait your hook and drop it in the water and wait - just like you said. Last week, he and 2 other guys caught 75 catfish. They could have caught more but 25 per person is the limit (they actually did catch more but had to release the ones too small to keep). He used to bass fish, but that requires standing and casting over and over and over and he just can't do that anymore. He sometimes fishes at the coast - but again, that type of fishing is more taxing and he just doesn't feel like doing that very often.

If you were in Texas, he'd take you fishing anytime you were ready to go!!!
