The one that DIDN'T get away......




Now my husband is a fisherman, as is any sane man in the south. I'm gonna share with you his near record catch. That would be a red-eye crappie, sometimes called a white perch around these parts. That one is about as big as they grow, he weighed in at 2 pounds 8 ounces, the state record is 3.3. He is now proudly displayed in my den on a nice piece of drift wood and some grass sprigs accenting it. If you have never eaten fresh fried perch, you haven't lived......


another one of the many reasons I choose to live in the Delta......
