Eliza's Fish Story

Here is the much requested first fishing trip with Eliza and her daddy. (Sorry it took so long Ashlyn, but I hope it's worth it.)


Brian took Eliza fishing to the lake by our house. She absolutely loved it and had quite an unforgettable experience. So, there they were, fishing and having a great time, when Eliza caught a catfish that almost broke her line. Well, she and daddy weren't the only ones with their eyes on that fish. As they reeled it in, they realized they had some competition.

Check out that form!

That's right, a 3 foot water moccasin thought he might get in on the action. Needless to say, this was not this fish's lucky day! Brian, ever the closet field reporter, got some great shots of it. Eliza wanted to reel it in and bring it home, but dad thought the wiser of it and cut the line. Amazingly, the snake let go and the fish swam away! Well, I'm not sure if Eliza will ever have another fish story like it, but at least we have the proof for THIS fish story!
