A Tribute to the Fisherman

Casey has several hobbies, but one of his favorites is fishing. If we get what we want in heaven, Casey will have endless streams full of fish that he can go throw a line in. This summer, he spent most of his spare time wading in the streams. When day light savings ended, I thought it was going to be the end of Casey's world because he knew his fishing days for the year were almost over. But, due to the unseasonable warm weather this month, he's been able to fit some extra trips in. He goes every weekend, thinking it will be his last. Who knows, with the way things are going, he might be fishing up until Christmas!Last weekend we went out (I tagged along as the photographer). This isn't his best prize fish, but I really liked the picture.



This was his prize fish this year. I wasn't with him when he caught it, but I got a text message soon after with this picture. Nice fish, huh!


Oh, and he actually got me hooked on it. This year for my birthday he gave me waders, a float tube, and fishing equipment. This is probably the biggest fish I caught (it really is bigger than it looks ;)). If you notice the grimace on my face, it's because I couldn't figure out how to hold the fish without it flopping everywhere.
