I love to fish..I am from south Arkansas, so I grew up fishing. My grandmother use to take my cousins, my sisters, and me down to the Ouachita River to fish..We used cane poles that my dad would get from the bottoms( if you don't know what the bottoms are you are not alone..it's a southern thing)..I have caught everything from turtles to tree branches..Once I caught a snake..needless to say I left that snake and the pole in the water..I think I even ran out of my shoes..I use worms..mainly nightcrawlers. i have to wear plastic gloves when I put them on my hook because I don't want the stuff that squirts out to get under my nails.
If anyone knows of any good fishing spots let me know.

April I am so glad to see you out of east St. Louis! It seemed every morning if there was a news story in east St. Louis or north St. Louis city you better bet it would be April. Way to make it to mid-day.

Busch Wildlife Area in St. Charles County. Lots and lots of lakes stocked with different types of fish in each one.

Whatever you do, don't take Kevin trout fishing. He might eat your flies....haha!

Hi, April. I think you are gorgeous. You know not many women feel that they can say nice things about another woman. I love your hair. It's always beautiful. I wish I could keep mine looking at least halfway decent, but when you have 4 children and the yougest 2 are only 5 months old, it gets kinda hard!! Can't wait for your next blog!!

Hi April
I am the lady who works in the Shop n Save that you shop in. I am a big fan of yours, and I think that the new setup is very nice. I love to fish also. I like to go to places like Wilmore Park or Carondelet Park in South City. I also wear gloves because I don't want that stuff in my nails, either. Maybe we could go fishing sometime. As always your hair looks great. I can't wait to see you in your matching hats and scarfs this winter.

Better Late than Never...just receiving an opportunity to reply to your blog. First and foremost, I have to compliment you in letting you know that you are an very attractive woman and I love your work. I turn in the new in the morning while getting ready for work, just to see what new news story you will be reporting on. I love to fish, but it has been years since I have gone. There are many different spots to fish in the St. Louis/Missouri area. I have a list of some good spots, I will have to forward it to you one day. Until then...keep up the great work, take care, and GOD BLESS!!!

April, Do you sing? I would love to here you sing at one of the Metro Mic events. What would really be cool if all of the Morning Crew were to sing at the Metro Mic. Except Tim of course....we've heard his singing! lol I'm glad to see you in St Louis and your doing a great job.

I am the Fox 2 Mid-Day anchor and morning live reporter..I get up very early(around 3am) and I have never drank coffee, so I run on pure adrenaline..Who am I kidding I am half-sleep most days..Anyway I am from the southern Arkansas(Go Hogs). My favorite pastime is fishing..
