You know, they would air it just in time for the election....

CRAWFORD, Texas (AP) - President Bush skipped a scheduled fishing outing Saturday morning to deal with the Iraq crisis, but his catch the day before was something to brag about.



"He took the biggest one of the day," a bass nearly four pounds, said Roland Martin, host of the Outdoor Life Network program, "Fishing with Roland Martin."



The unexpected Friday footage came as the crew was filming at the pond and Bush "came motoring down" in his pickup to chat, Martin said. They discussed the next day's scheduled shoot.



At about 5:30 p.m., Bush looked at his watch and said he had time to "make a couple casts, so we jumped into the boat real quick."



The TV host said Bush is "a very accomplished fisherman. He handled the tackle really well and caught three fish," Martin said. "He complains he doesn't fish there enough; so he misses that a lot."

But.....

The real question is.....

Will his father let him borrow Mac's rod?











For those of you who may not know..... A couple of years ago, at the request of Johnny Morris, Mac did up the handles of a couple of rods for George, Sr.!!

Sweet....I'd take him fishing to my favorite hot spot. No question about it. I'd love to see him tackle a nice big 6 or 8 pounder.
