so yesterday on my lunch break i headed back to the docks armed with a special fishin pole and look what i caught! took about 10 minutes but i got it. it's deep there by the docks too.. gotta be 9 or 10 feet. people probably thought i was nuts...

i surprised her with it when i got home from work and boy was she thrilled! she's wearing them today of course.

I think you caught a fish-flop.
