Near the end of the summer (during the period of our lives when internet was non-existent) Jeff and I went to Flaming Gorge with the Brewers. Jose took us out fishing one morning and it was the first time I had ever been fishing! (for real fishing, not just at a dock or dam). I was excited, to say the least and had the best time. We started early in the morning and I look like I just woke up, but I caught some great fish! The last fish I caught is the biggest I have ever seen! I couldn't stop smiling because of my excitement!
This is the first fish that I caught. A decent 10 pounder! It felt good reeling that one in.

This is the prize winner of the year. It was too big for me to hold with my itsy bitsy hands, so Jose put it in my arms like a new born babe... but this thing weighed much more than that! It was about 32 lbs and slimy! Such a fun experience and It made for a very memorable first time fishing! Thanks Josie B!

IS THAT A FISH OR A SHARK? I will never water ski again in Flaming Gorge. Very sweet catch though. I get excited if I can get the line in the water so I can't imagine how exciting it would be to actually pull something out. Did you eat it?
Let me just tell you that Jeff was so stoked that you commented on this picture because he has been waiting for so long for someone to comment!
We did not eat the fish, we let it go! It was too big and it wouldn't have been very yummy to eat... BUT, we did eat the fish in the first picture and it was delicious!
