         The life and times of Mark and Paula Persons

Sunday, August 21, 2011: Paula was out SCUBA diving and came back with a fishing lure that she found at the bottom of an iron ore pit near Crosby, Minnesota.  She added it to her collection of diving treasures.
Deep Diver Paula photographed this fish while down below looking for fishing tackle. 

Speaking of fish, Chef Paula prepared salmon alfredo for dinner that night.  It was north Atlantic salmon with noodles.
Putting it all together, it looked like this.  A feast fit for a king.

That evening, Mark and Paula headed out on the Minnow at Gilbert Lake to find more food for dinner.  Paula came up with a fish that looked more like bait than a real catch!
Mark was busy with his rod, but did not do well.
Paula caught another fish.  Hmmm....what bait are you using, Paula?  

Well, it is corn.  Brightly colored it is irresistible to fish. 

Good going, Paula!


Corn for Bait


Upon returning to the dock, sometimes referred to as the Gilbert Lodge pier, they discovered the outboard motor was covered by seaweed. 

Mark, do you have a permit to collect these lake plants?

Answer:  Gosh, I didn't even try to capture it!


One year ago today:  Mark and Paula were shopping in Nisswa, Minnesota.  Details 

Quote of the day:  Gilbert Lake is a summer paradise.  Mark < Back to previous story Ahead to next story >
