Fishing at Comanche

One of the birthday presents I gave Kurt this year was a guided fishing trip. I arranged with Jeff at C&C Outdoor Adventures to take him out for a day on the lake. Dean Grundy went along and they had a great time.

They went fishing for trout on Lake Comanche. Kurt had a sore head and mouth from his little accident but still managed to catch some fish.

Small fish...

and not-so-small fish!

Thank you Jeff for making this such a nice birthday for Kurt!
And thank you Dean for taking such great photos!

Not only did Kurt come home with the fish HE caught today.....

He came home with the fish EVERYONE caught today! Yum! Can't wait to have a fish fry!

Today Kurt went fishing at Ice House Reservoir with our friend Dave. The weather forecast called for rain, but they decided to take their chances.

Dave recently bought a fishing boat so they were looking forward to trying it out.

Here's Dave demonstrating his worm threader. Tricky little gadget.

Kurt caught the first fish. His first fish of the season.

Kurt and Dave called from the lake to say they were coming home and to get the frying pan ready. I made some cornbread, some rice pilaf, a salad and some brownies.
Here's Dave showing Kurt how to easily skin a fish.

13 inches! Wooooooohoo!

Kurt and Dave being considerate and cooking the fish outside so my house won't smell fishy ;)

We had a yummy dinner together. The fish was delicious. I can't wait until the guys catch some more!
