  • Is this where the best fishing story goes?
    -Well, my dad and I don’t really… spend time together. He wasn’t really my favorite person in the world…. Well, I dont know what type of boat we had… but we went out on the water the one time, and we were having fun, laughing, giggling, and fishing… Well, When it was time to had to shore… we couldn’t move… We ran out of damn gas… This might not be the best fishing story, because I didn’t catch a big fish, or anything, but to me it’s the best, ’cause I got to spend time with my dad, and we grown close to each other…. for once
    -Thanks for your time…

    Not sure if its the best story but it is to me, I never got to see me dad as a kid so I spent my summers with my Grandpa and we would go fishing at least once a week. I wish I could go back to them days!

    Now, we all know fishing stories tend to be a bit, shall we say exaggerated. But to the best of my recollection this really happened……
    In about 1975 I was ice fishing out on Lake Erie with my dad and sister. We had an awesome day of perch fishing and sipping brandy in our shanty. We were hauling our catch back to shore when my sister declared she needed to relieve herself. In those days fisherman would throw a sheet of plywood down over larger holes when they were done fishing them. Sometimes that plywood get blown around and you would never know if it was a hole or not. In our brandy altered state of mind dad and I decided to hold up a sheet laying on the ice so sister could get behind it to do her business. She stepped behind it and SPLASH, we heard her go in. Fortunately she popped straight back up but for whatever reason we couldn’t reach her. I can’t remember why. So dad tossed me the keys to his RAM truck and I sprinted to shore and brought it out. Dad pulled a line out of the back, tied it to his front bumper, and threw the other end to my sis. She latched on and dad was able to back her out of the hole. So, my sister owes her life to a RAM truck. And I drive one today!

    About 3 years ago my grandpa and I went fishing and listened to bluegrass music, Grandpa called it grandpa music. We got to the spot were we were going to fish and we got unloaded, took our buckets put them upside down then we casted our line out onto the water and just enjoyed the beautiful sunset, and how it looked so amazing on the water. Then I started catching bluegill like crazy one after the other. I ate the bluegill and kept one as a pet. On the way home we listened to grandpa music again, talked about how much fun we had and how we enjoyed the scenery. Later that week my bluegill was not eating, I got worried So I took it to a pond and let it go, it was sad for me because it was the first time I had caught multiple fish. I let it go and to this very day I always say bye to my fish, when i go pass the pond were i let it go. I will always treasure that memory that I had with my fish and with my 89 year old grandpa. Who is still alive and shares that memory with me.

    The best fishing story of my life has not yet been written. Last year, I won a trip to Selwyn Lake Lodge in Saskatchewan, and I’m taking three friends from college with me. Just paying them back for the epic roadtrips we’ve done in years past.
