Like Fish In A Barrel

My sister has a contract on a house that needs a lot of work. One of the most interesting...ummm...issues...is that the inground pool has fish in it. Real fish. Big enough to catch with a hook, as evidenced by the photos below.  (You might be a redneck if......you buy a house with a stocked swimming pool?)


Pawpaw (my daddy) and Alina (my neice)
Cole's bream
Casey caught his first fish EVER!!  (We kept looking at the picture and saying, "Where's the fish?"

Here it is!
Riiiiiiight!
Cole had to bring his catfish home, so it's swimming around in a bucket on my front porch.

For those of you who are curious, our theory is that the fish washed into the pool from the creek  nextdoor when our area had some flooding last spring.  And to answer the second-most frequently asked question: they'll probably keep fishing in it for now.  It's too cold to swim anyway!
