Gaston Lake




The weekend of July 11th we headed to Gaston Lake with Matt and Joy. Scott's parents got a new boat last year and so they gave us the old one, and when I say old, I mean old....

Hence the name I have given it, the U.S.S. P.O.S. but hey, it was free!
While on this "fishing vessel", as Scott likes to call it, we often "noodle" for catfish. This involves using a contraption of pvc, swimming noodles, fishing line, and bait to catch catfish. These "noodles" are dropped in a line and then you wait to see one pop up from a fish tugging on it. I like to compare it to a mini dealiest catch. We caught several and enjoyed a delicious meal of baked catfish, homemade hushpuppies, and corn on the cob! Here are a few pics from the weekend...
