Angler Hitty

     My memories of "swimming with the fishes" after the terrible fire on the Diana-Kate almost dissuaded me
from trying my hand at actually catching the slimy creatures, but I remembered the lovely the
aroma of freshly cooked fish coming from the galley and yearned to experience it once again.
     Pat's daddy used to say "Fishing is a jerk at one end of the line waiting for a jerk from the other".  
I didn't really like the sound of that...I knew I wasn't a jerk!  But I was curious what the jerk on the other end of the line would be like.  
     Once I caught my first fish, I knew then what that jerk was all about!  Such fun!  I caught fish after fish and now have plenty for a nice dinner.   I think I'll take them over to Racketty-Packetty House and see if I can pursuade Ridiklis to cook them up for me.
