Hot Spot

Back about mid December, Caleb and Rob spent some time fishing and they hit a "hot spot".  They caught 56 fish is about an hour's time.  He had texted me earlier that they had one...then a lot later, two...then I got a text that they had "enough for dinner"...a little later he said they "had trouble closing the cooler."

Most of the fish were Mayan Cichlids, which are invasive and have no limits or restrictions.  Most of the rest were Oscars - also invasive.  I think two were native fish.  Caleb's favorite fish to catch are large mouth bass and he only got one of those, but of course if he'd caught 56 large mouth bass, he'd have to throw most of them back.

Once they got home and once Irene was in bed, Rob and I set to cleaning the fish - and it took hours! Fortunately they were all good to eat and we ate many meals off this one fishing trip!
