Bad Ass fishing boat

Sunburned, tired, and happy. I guess that is how you describe our weekend. We took Grandpa Chuck's boat "warp speed" and went out fishing this weekend, the entire gang. The end result was to to go to Roche Harbor and spend the night with some friends. However, true to the Terrell nature, we also went fishing. We hit Pt. Thompson and drug around a "hoochie" (I love saying that) and flasher and just wasted gas. So we made our way to Fisheries Pt. on Waldron Island. Again, drug around a lure and wasted gas. We made our way to San Juan Island and Roche Harbor where we tied up on the dock next to our friends Don and Ginger. We were amongst the "beautiful people" and our little ol' 25 ft. Bayliner appeared tiny snuggled amongst the 67-100 ft boats that were parked next to us. However, we know how to have fun and if you don't need a big boat to have a wonderful meal, good wine and great times with your friends. Hayden, Fischer and Alyssa did the fishing for "creatures" and ended up with a shrimp, eel and some other random stuff. Shannon ended up with a bit of a headache.

We woke up to a beautiful day and headed back home to fish along the way. We hit Fisheries and only seemed to catch kelp. Hayden decided that we 'neeeded' to go to Pt. Thompson so we pulled up and headed back. We fished along the shore on Orcas Island. We had a go home time of 3pm. At about 2:55pm I noticed the rod go bang, bang, bang. Shannon reeled him in and I attempted to net it. WORST net job every but not to harp on it -- we did get the fish in the boat. So at 3:04 we were on our way with a beautiful 16lb salmon. of course, Fischer cried because we didn't catch 'his' fish and Hayden we had to remind him that it was a "group fish" and just because it was on his "flasher and squid" it was not his fish.

Two weekends in a row of fishing -- couldn't get any more luck than that! So I think that we have become a Bad Ass Fishing boat. Now - don't ask me where this came from but Fischer has referred to the boat as a Bad Ass Fishing boat. He claims to have learned this in Idaho but I am not sure.....we keep trying to tell him that is not a nice thing to say -- but he doesn't want to drop it. If you know who taught him this - can you let me know? Thanks!!

On a side note -- replacing my taillight (see previous post) is going to cost me $158! SNAP! Those darn kids.
