Due to the massive amount of requests for more fishing/hunting related posts on this blog, I (Jared) have to do some posting of my own. First off fishing. Since consulting with my fishing coach (John Sanchez) and discussing baits (chicken livers) and tactics (cast and wait), I have become the reigning catfish champion of our subdivision. There is no official tournament, but I am sure that I have caught the biggest cat in the pond.
Lake record holder.
Unfortunately I do not hold the record for most turtles caught in an afternoon (one) which is currently held by Kellen, and I'm not going to even try to tackle the Bluegill record Becky set. I'm not sure where this fishing section of the blog is going so I'll
end it there.
I have no pics of Kellen's turtle so here is one of his fish.
Next on the agenda, hunting. This Thanksgiving while Becky goes to her parents to sit around and eat a fat store bought bird that is surely chock full of steroids (and butter if they know what is good for them and follow Big J's secret recipe (which will not be divulged here)) I will be out with the rest of the Longmire Well Service crew on a duck hunt/bay fishing trip in San Antonio Bay (which is not very close to San Antonio). As such I have been getting ready for the trip with some sporting clay shooting on Sunday with Jason and Eric (geologists from UH) and more recently with a trip to Bass Pro to get some supplies. So I bought a bunch of stuff and each piece of clothing seems to have a different style of camouflage, so I will be either super invisible or stand out like a horse in a cathouse. (If you can spot me in the picture below then the answer is probably the latter).
Ok I think I wore out the parentheses key so I better finish up. Later
(Update!!!: It has been brought to my attention that the lake record for Bluegill is being challenged by the 10 year old neighbor kid who taught Becky how to catch fish, he has amassed a much larger tally, but has been filing them under "regular fish". We'll give you more information as the story develops.)

I don't know what you're talking about in that last picture Jared...i don't see you at all!!
You'll be shocked and disappointed to know that Ben suggested that we cook a "small ham" for our early/fake Thanksgiving dinner.
It will be a sad, sad day in the Judd household. There will be no enhancing the flavor of a turkey this year with our cajun injector.
Although maybe he has a secret injectable pork marinade that I just don't know about...
Jared- I hope you have a great time with the ducks. We'll miss you at Thanksgiving, but hopefully you have a good time. Maybe we'll see you at Christmas!
Tell that neighbor kid to bring it on- Becky=Bluegill champ!
