Heading home from work today, I call Dave V, ask him to call in sick so
we can fish a bit. He agrees to a delayed work start time and makes
arrangements to meet me at the lake, but a fishing bet must be made. We
agree and the bet stands, His wife thinks he's in work and mine will
soon think I have to run out on a work related issue. The bet?????
First person to catch a fish 3 lbs or more, the other guy has to call
his wife and lether know he's fishing and not working.

I get home and the wife seems to be "having enough of the kids for the
day", I use my I have to run out for a while, and head to the lake. I
meet up with Dave and off we go. We joked a bit about catching a fish
that weighs in exactly 3lbs, both claiming we would be the one to do
it.. A few minutes later Dave hooks his first fish, but not close to 3
lbs so I'm safe. I get the next fish, not close to 3 lbs either,
Fishing conditions were tough and the bite was slow. Dave managed
another bass on a zara spook of all things, still safe, not 3 lbs. We
start heading back in and get to the shore, I flip my spinner bait and
Dave says pull up let me off, I figure, we're done. Both of us safe, he
flips his worm into some pads right at the launch and sets the hook,
good fish, fat fish. He gets the scale, standing on shore we weigh the
fish 2.14 2.11 2.15 2.12 3.0 3.0 3.1 3.0 3.0 3.0. He says get the phone
out you lost. I argue that we were done with the bet as he told me to
let him off and we were grounded when he caught the fish, fish was
weighed on shore. We spatted a bit but both agreed that it was a bad
bet to begin with and nothing good could come from it.

We also decided that we still had some time left so why not fish just a
bit more. We head into a little cove, I hit a good bass but it popped
off and Dave wound up taking his 4th. This one with a hook in it. He
shows me the hook, it's my hook from earlier last week. It was a wide
gap hook with a stopper that I had ordered from BPS, I had hooked a
fish deep and cut the line due to me forgetting the pliers. I got my
hook back and the fish swam away a lot better than it was. Go Figure...
any ideas for bets for us this year?, We would love to hear them
