I had to cancel my plans for Blade this year after my son said that he and his family were coming to visit us. However, they now KNOW that we will make the 2010 Blade!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, here's a few pics of us fishing and our new granddaughter - first time my wife and I saw her! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Three generations of fishermen - er, fisherpeople. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />



Me with an average-sized bass.



My son landing another one.



He caught several nice bluegills as well.



Here he is with another bass.



We didn't catch any big ones this time but we had a great time! We love my pond! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Klink how big is your pond?

PS thats a good looking little girl!!!!! err future fishing buddy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Spending time with your new granddaughter and fishing with your son beats Blade any day. Next year, spend time fishing with family AT Blade.

Awesome pics Tom. Family is THE most important thing we all have. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That is easily the best reason for not going to blade that I have seen. Nobody would argue with those priorities, Klink. Family always comes first. Congratulations on the new granddaughter. Spoil her well!

Last time I went fishing I accidently throw my fishing pole into the lake <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

Nice pics <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

You're really making me want to buy a jon boat.... I need to get out and do something other than little trout streams. I haven't fished a lake in what feels like forever.

The pond is roughly three acres in size, and a great place to relax! My son drives up from Alabama and just loves to go fishing there. He's pretty darned good too - he has outfished me several times! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Thanks guys! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I have to run next door, but I'll be back in 20 minutes or so. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Beautiful family, PK.

Great reason to miss Blade, but we'll see you next year for sure! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Wow, you have a nice place. Cool pics.
