We haven't Gone Anywhere!!

OK - I know another excuse.  But I am gonna be on it better - I promise.  These are pictures I found on my old e-mail account and I would like to post them so you know there are still fish "down here" @ Kentucky Lake.  I will try to post underneath each picture what went on that particular day.  Crappie are really on now - they are limiting out.  Make sure you keep Cozy Cove in mind when you are making your reservations.

Fishing is starting to pick up!

Here are some random pictures Craig sent.  Check out that big smallie caught by Harold Knight.  Not bad huh!  You all should start thinking about making a date to get those crappie.  They are COMING!  See  you on the Lake!

Harold Knight with a big brownie!!

Craig Fishes Tournament

We didn't get any pictures, but Craig placed 3rd in the Focus Open Tournament out of Fenton Ramp.  He had 14 lb. 12 oz.  It's starting to look like spring and it's good to see Craig on the lake again.  Remember, we have dates open for both Craig and Eddie and Cozy Cove is the place to stay.  See you on the Lake!

Craig is "Back on the Water Again"

Here are some pictures of Craig fishing with Russell and also fishing by himself.  The water temp is 48 - 50 degrees and Craig is not telling me where he is catching.  Think he is hiding from me.  The weather is changing and it looks like the worst of the winter is behind us.  Don't forget to call Craig or Ed and set up a time to go fishing.  Also - Danna is @ Cozy Cove to set you up for a nice place to sleep!  See you on the lake.

Craig - what kinda fish is this - dough balls?

Today Ryan took Craig Fishin!

Ryan has been a great friend and cousin to Craig.  Today they were on the Lake and I think the pictures show, as always, Craig can find the fish.  It is the first, of hopefully many days that Craig will be back on the lake.  Enjoy the photos and see you on the Lake.

Going on in our daily lives!

We, all friends and family, of Craig and Connie Hipsher, are trying very hard to keep Craig and Connie busy.  Every minute they have to themselves they think of their beloved Katie.  But life goes on and it seems very hard for them now.  The kids @ Katie's school sent this to Craig so I thought I would post it.  We have to move forward so get ready for spring and come down and help keep Craig busy - he loves the water (I think he is part fish).  Don't forget to call Danna @ Cozy Cove for your room needs.

We will always miss you Katie!

Katie Leaves Us Far Too Soon

On February 8, 2011 Katie Hipsher, daughter of Craig Hipsher and Granddaughter of Connie Hipsher passed away after a tragic accident in their home.  Anyone who knew Craig, knew Katie.  She was with her dad whenever she could arrange it.  She could outfish most serious fishermen.  She loved being on the water with her Dad.  Anyone who knew Katie loved to hear her laugh.  She was a "dream daughter"; beautiful to look at and a lot of tom boy in her.  She talked quiet and always had a grin on her face. She would  go night fishing with Dad and Eddie and she would give em heck.  Ed loved it.  We have talked to Craig and Connie and they are inconsoleable.  Craig has said he has lost his best friend.  Cozy Cove has made this tragedy alot easier for them by accomodating friends and family.  Danna Norman has been a true friend.

Katie's visitations will be 5PM to 7 PM@ Collier Funeral Home in Benton, KY.  A memorial service will follow at 7 PM.   There is a scholarship fund set up in Katie's name @ CFSB, P.O. Box 467, Benton,KY

I looked through the pictures I had of Katie and her Dad and I found many - but I am only posting these few.  All of our prayers go out to the Hipsher family. 

We all know that Katie and Papaw will be looking down from above.
