I ordered a fishing lure the other day through the mail, but I ordered the wrong thing.
The lure I wanted should have been about 5 cm long (about as big as my thumb).
(For anyone curious -- it was the Rapala Shad Rap Shallow Diver, Blue Gill color. This is a fantastic lure. It. Catches. Fish.)
But I wasn't paying close enough attention, and I ordered the Rapala Super Shad Rap Shallow Diver, Blue Gill Color. At 5 1/2 inches long. It is HUGE.
This lure is the size of some of the fish I catch with the smaller version of the lure. I'm not even sure I have test (line) that I want to put this lure on, the fish I'd be sure to entice would be *enormous*.
I could write the sequel to Moby Dick. ;)
**I do indeed fish! It was serendipity that I had a story idea for The Way to a Fisherman's Heart...which I enjoyed writing because I got to spend so much time thinking about fishing. I had to remind myself...romance, write some romance. Not just what lure to use!
