Don't go fishing with me!
He was starting to get a little frustrated with me so he decided to put a treble hook on my fishing line; that would give me more to work with to catch the fish. I was determined to show him I could catch something, so I set my jaw and cast that line as hard as I could. But it didn't come back over my arm like it was supposed to so I pulled it really hard. It seemed to be stuck on something and I hadn't even reached the water yet. I was getting ready to pull it again when I felt something pulling the pole and me backwards. It was Pete, I had hooked his two lips together with one of the three hooks. He couldn't even say anything. He had to get up and pull the pole out of my hands to get my attention. He had to go to the emergency room to have the hooks removed. He's never taken me fishing since. I did, however, go fishing with my husband and son once. I say once because that was the last time they took me, too. I hooked my son on the back of his head with a single hook. Dean heard these stories at a family get together a few months back and he has since sold his bass boat. He decided we would fish out of a pond. Me on one end and him on the opposite end facing me! Well, in case I catch a real fish this time, I've stashed some good recipes!
