Fruits of our labor

The day after the Grizzlies game gave us more magnificent weather so we took advantage of it by doing a little fishing and having a fish fry. Kennon, Betty and I spent a while fishing and had quite a few bream, along with a small bass and one huge crappie to fry up. The process of nabbing that crappie was hysterical and I wish it had been caught on video. I caught him and reeled him onto the edge of the pond when the line broke, the crappie started flopping around like crazy and made it back into the water, at which time Kennon went in head first after him, pinned him to the bottom of the pond and brought him back out by hand. It was so funny watching Kennon make that mad dive after him. We had no idea there were crappie in the pond and this one was so big that Kennon decided there was no way he was getting away. All of that hard work paid off as a lot of appetizers for our steak dinners later when Mom and Roy came over to visit w/ us and K's parents.
