Fishing Is an Exercise in Patience

Waiting Patiently-Fishing From the Banks of the Colorado River-Pelican Point RV Park-Matagorda, Texas

Wait for the bite...be patient.

Feel the nibble...be patient some more...then set the hook and reel.

Show off your catch...be patient (with the photographer this time)...and smile.

Release the undersized fish...wait for a bigger one...be patient.

Just in case you're wondering, John caught one keeper-sized trout. We had to buy some freshly caught black drum at the store in town to have enough for a delicious fried fish dinner for two.

    1. Hahaha. There was also a time when I didn't think I had enough patience for fishing, but the possibility of catching "the big one" keeps me going.

  2. I love this series of photos.

    Nothing better than pan-fried trout.
