Pat on your back for your honesty. Some thing that seems to going by the
wayside these days.
As a side note it IS ok to lie like hell sometimes about size ,number, of
fish and to stretch the story.
You could have told it like this.
I had a small trout on . A small mouth ate it with a large mouth swallowing
him. He then proceeded to make the third run around me then ran between my
legs shot to the left then right and broke my pole. Then tell the better
half you half got to have a better pole. Of course that old reel was part of
the problem so its got to get replaced too. Her new shoes will have to wait
till next month
