The Big Dogs Go Fishing!



Guys (or gals) you all know that I do the blog - wife of Eddie! Well yesterday the dogs hooked up and went fishing. Now you know that doesn't happen very often cause they are usually busy. They put in @ Barkley and spanked 'em pretty good. I would give a quarter (hehe) to be a fly listening to those two swap fish stories. You know they was telling some big ones. Of course I knew they had to be catching since I got no calls - then Eddie calls to offer to bring dinner home. Take a look @ some of their fish. (Just in case you didn't know - Eddie is the one in the blue rain gear - that's Craig with the evil smile. See you on the Lake!




















Harold Knight of Knight & Hale Game Calls

Craig took Harold Knight out on May 13 on Barkley Lake. Water was extremely high and dirty. Water temperature was 68 degrees. It seems that Harold had camera duty that day - but he took some great pictures - we rarely get to see Craig - and we all know how handsome he is! They caught really nice fish.  Fish that, as you can see, were in the 5 - 7 lb. range.   That kinda day makes it worth going out there! See you on the Lake!









A Craig Hipsher Tale



OK - everyone knows that Craig fishes EVERY chance he gets.  Now most of the time he will @ least catch a drum - maybe a catfish.  Well according to Craig he says he caught a 6 pounder the other day.  Now there were no witnesses and Craig is a good "storyteller".  I finally got the truth from a 90 year old blue gill fisherman - that saw what happened on the bank.  He took a 3 pound fish filled his livewell with Red Bull - then got it out and wiped it off and it drank a bottle of Mountain Dew!  Proof is in the picture.  Craig will see you on the Lake!  Come on Craig - thats funny I don't care who you are!

Katie Hipsher shows Dad that she fishes just like her Grandpa!

Katie is true sportsman.  She loves to fish and hunt.  She showed Dad how to catch them when they got out the other day - and you know she really learned from Dale.  Craig - you know I'm pullin your leg - lol.  She had a great day with Dad and she deserves the publicity - that's right Katie - I posting all the pictures.  Just to remind Dad that you can walk the walk.  See you on the Lake!



Chasity shows Craig how to catch fish

This is a little late in coming - sorry.  We have been fighting high water.  As you can see Chastity gave Craig a lesson in fishing during the high water.  It is always a good thing when Craig is humbled.  There are no details on these fish - but if you run into Chastity, I bet she could give you all the details!  Nice crappie Chastity!  It was a good day on the lake and one that was definitely in high water.  Craig will "See you on the Lake".
