This post is created with much frustration... A perfect night for fishing... absolutely beautiful moon, pond like glass, plenty of bugs... I caught six fish myself... and Wookie had landed herself two or three and then she began to run into some trouble with casting, lure issues and then finally, snaggin my line and causing the biggest god foresaken tangle between our lines, that I have ever seen. After, no joke, twenty minutes I managed to get her line free from my line, untangle her lure and the nightmare of tangles on her line alone and began to work on my tangled line. Wookie takes a cast and instantly, the infamous lunker noise, glump... and in she reels the beauty you see here!!! I am so psyched for her I am screaming, ready to tip over the canoe. Little did I know that, Wookie, the big tough Wookie, would herself start to panic... refusing to touch this 4 lb 1oz fish herself, saying " Jamp, that is all you!" WHAT!!!! I said. YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO HOLD THIS FISH!!! So... there I was, holding this beautiful bass, having my picture taken, by her, with her fish. As you can see in most of the pictures I am none too thrilled... basically, because, well WHAT THE HELL!!!! ;) In honor of Wookie i cropped my face out of all the images that I coule. After a few shots by the camera and by me at Wookie... esentially degrading her Wookiehood, she agreed to hold it briefly... I had just enough time to snap a few pics of her with the fish, before she lost her mind. Regardless, good job Wookie! Congrats! It was a great fish. For all those interested, I stripped Wookie of her new fishing pole and she will now be using the Barbie fishing rod and reel package deal from Dick's, atleast until she can toughen up a bit.
