It's been awhile thanks to the newspaper and other obligations. Nat, our exchange student from Thailand, and I went last night and he caught his first bass and a very nice crappie. "This made my day," he told me later as we drove home in lightning and an approaching storm. We just got the canoe lashed to the top of the truck when the rain started. This morning at a different lake I did quite well with bluegill and a couple of bass. Between Nat and I we will have a nice little fish fry tonight, perhaps his last before going home on the 21st.
