Sustenance

I'm bringing a few dozen CC cookies to share, but for folks planning on fishing the whole day, wanting/needing something a little more substantial to eat, will any sort of fire for roasting hotdogs (campfire/campstove) be available on scumfoot? 

 

- Thanks!

It doesn't matter what you're fishing for, just as long as you're out there doing it.

Scumfoot photos...

Here are a few photos from one of the funnest days I've EVER had! Dang those carp are strong!! (sorry these pics are so big - I still can't figure out how to resize them)

 

 

One of at least 7 - yes 7!!! (stopped counting after 7 but fish kept biting - dang carp kept interrupting my lunch!) - carp I miraculously landed this afternoon at Scumfoot - with expert help and guidance from our local resident Dutchman, Dutch, and everybody's favorite flying Dutchman, Hengelaar!  What a day!!!

 

Look at this pig of a carp landed by Hengelaar! It looks like a bison with that huge hump on its back!!

 

Gotta kiss that fish!! ;)

Had a great time fishing with all of you today.  Equally awesome, was finally meeting Gijs!

I had the fortune to catch a little video of Gijs landing that pig of a carp shown above.

Currently uploaded to my channel on Youtube (gijs, if you want it pulled, let me know!)
