Today was another great day of fishing. We took out out a plumber named Mathew today out to Inaccessible Island. The weather was so calm. It was amazing to have a day of fishing without any wind, especially out at Inaccessible Island because it is so open and exposed. Of course the first thing that we had to do was start Jiffy drilling. Here is the drill, its box, our fishing poles, our buckets of water, and the Pisten Bully as we prepared to punch some holes in the ice.

Then, it was time to fish! And we all caught fish! Here is Mat with some "Bernies" he caught.

Here is Brad with another "Bernie."

And here I am, catching a ton of fish...using my favorite "Barbie" fishing pole!

Some of the fish we caught were so little, I'm worried that they will get eaten in our tanks at home. Even so, I still laugh like a little kid every single time that I catch a fish!

Finally, I really liked this shot of the Pisten Bully with the Barn Glacier in the background. We caught 35 fish today! And any day that you can be fishing in Antarctica, it is always a great day!
