I actually went bay fishing in the gulf of mexico near Padre Island for the first time since I was about 5, and I caught my first 'big' fish!

Though honestly i'm sort of embarrassed to post about it as it's nothing compared to what you serious fishermen are always catching. It was my first though so I really want to share! I actually caught the second biggest king fish of everyone on the boat which was kind of cool for a first experience fishing! (of course the one who 'caught' the biggest one was a 6 year old kid! But he did need a lot of help reeling that thing in!)

These pictures of me are horrible, it was a hot day so I am making the most terrible face..so uh, just look at the fish!





We also caught a ton of whiting and trout and it was sort of exciting because it was the first time I was able to eat something I caught myself!
