Maine fishin 2007

Jerome displays a 13 pound Maine estuary carp.

September 15, 2007

Boy did it rain at times! The front vented it's  revenge on us while we fished. I looked across the river to the spot where Vinny and Jerome were fishing and wondered if they had been washed away in the flood! Of course everyone was well and we endured the elements in pursuit of a favorite pass time.

The Osmonds ham it up! Vinny shows his. Mar-e catches a sturgeon!! And Elmer gets a cat.

The highlight of the day was a shovel nosed sturgeon that we had to net. We tried long release but the wall prevented it. The drop was too far to cut the line and after the picture it was released harmlessly.  White cats made their presence felt and they went home too. Bald eagles flew by on their way to catch their own fish adding to the beauty of the surroundings.

Fish on for the Osmonds!  Fish on for Jerome! Lost fish for Elmer..........

A closer look at the sturgeon.
