I’ve recently taken up fishing. I haven’t fished since I was a kid and really never got that interested in it, until now. One of my grandkids has gotten the fishing bug and he is a fanatic. He would finish 24/7 if he could. So, based on his enthusiasm, I bought a rod and reel and now enjoy fishing.

However, as I have learned in the past two months, I will not fish if the weather temperature is above 90 degrees. My first fishing attempt in July, in Mississippi, was on a day where the temps hit 97 degrees. It was hot and miserable. My second and third fishing attempts were also in the mid 90 degrees temp. Although I did catch my first fish on the third excursion, it was miserably hot and I swore off fishing above 90 degrees.

Now for my fourth fishing excursion this past weekend the temps were mid 80s. So myself, a friend from work (I got into fishing) and my two grandkids went out on Saturday for 3 hours to try our hand.

Below is a video of that adventure and also a short one from Sunday where me and the older grandson went out for another 2 1/2 hours to try again. Both days we did not catch anything.
