Fishing trip

We went fishing today.  Bruce knew better than to go.  He would have been sea sick, not liked getting his hands yucky while baiting his hook, and would not have liked the smell.  He stayed behind and enjoyed reading his book.  Meanwhile we fished in Destin  - "the luckiest fishing village in the world"  .  That sure wasn't true for us.  One of the guides said today was the worst fishing he's had out there in 12 years!  I caught 2 fish and Mark caught a small shark - all of which had to be thrown back.  Less than a dozen keepers were caught by the whole boat of fisher people.

 Mark & Doreen ready on the boat.

 Doreen baits her hook!

 Fish bait (sqiid and fish parts)


 Some of the splashes when the boat was moving - I got soaking wet!

 Coast guard boat stopped while we were fishing and the FL fished & game wardens came aboard to check on the fish we had caught - we laughed because fishing was pathetic!

 Doreen rides up high on the return trip.

Our room is in the lowest red one that is in the center right above the white building in front.
