When I woke up to my alarm, I was a little concerned because it had been going off for a while and I don't ever like to be late.
But all my fears were dissolved when I went to wake up my daughter and she was already awake and almost dressed and ready to go!
She grabbed a quick breakfast while I had a cup of coffee and my only cigarette for the day (no smoking-per "thegeneral"s rules)
We met him pretty close to 6:30, I usually like to be a little early, but am never late.
Quick transfer of the rods, and off we went.
Short wait at the launch, pretty uneventful.

Hoping this ends with a big smile and a nice fish!

The "American Pride" paddle boat made a pass by for a little entertainment.

But fishing was kind of slow, so Brigette took a little nap.

I don't know who had a bigger smile, me or my daughter, but this was FUN!!
The biggest fish she had ever felt on the end of her rod, and what a fight it was putting on!!

... And then we lost it..  :'(
A little disappointed, but still excited, Brigette was all smiles when she said she would have eaten that fish..
Maybe we will get another chance..
But it was just not meant to be this time.
We fished as long as there was a tide, but no more bites..
Quick ride back to the launch and a much needed restroom break, my daughter had a good time, we are very appreciative of the effort put out by our captain "thegeneral"
Brigette understands that fishing is not always catching, and is very appreciative of the opportunity.
It was a good day, and I cannot thank our host enough, who even refused my offer of fuel for the trip, I did buy him lunch, but he never ate it, and went out of his way to show us a good time.
Thanks again!!

Only problem is, now that she lost one, she wants to catch one even more now...
