Craftella Scrapbooking: I got skunked!!! - Craftella Scrapbooking

So, yesterday, we went to Apache Lake located in Arizona about 14 miles from the Superstition Mountains. My boyfriend is an avid fisherman. He is really, really good. He should fish tournaments, but he's too cheap. Well, I shouldn't say that. He has fished them before, but they can be a little pricey, and if you know anything about fishing, winter is not the greatest time to catch fish.

We left our house around 6 A.M. and got to the lake around 8. The road up there along the mountains is dirt, filled with washboards and huge potholes. So a lake that is maybe only 20 to 30 miles away takes anywhere from an hour and a half to two hours to get there.

Now, I like to fish. I don't LOVE it. But I like it. Normally, I do not fish all day. I will bring my scrap mags with me and spend a lot of time scanning the pages over and over and over. We also have a three month old baby, so she keeps me busy.

But not today.

Today, I fished my little heart out. The baby was being really good and occupying herself, so I had time to fish. I fished from the time we launched up until the time we left at 7 PM except for a little thirty minute nap I took. My boyfriend caught 13 largemouth and smallmouth bass. His uncles, which were in a different boat, caught like 15 between them.

And myself?

I caught nothing.

All day fishing and not one bite.

Can you smell me?

I got skunked!
