Have you ever lied about...

Saw a post response in another post that I thought would make a fun conversation here. The question for you to answer is this. Have you ever lied about a fishing trip or anything related to a fishing trip, and if so, were you caught?
I'll start. When I was a senior in high school I was faced with a dilemma. It was a beautiful warm early spring day and the lake had just thawed out a few day ago. I wanted to go fishing badly but it was a school day, so what to do? Well, I called in sick and skipped school and headed out to the lake. Back in those days, that was a BIG no no. Anyways, I had to be back home by 3:00 in the afternoon to get ready to go to my after school job, so at 2:00 I headed back to my car. My mouth dropped and my heart skipped a beat when I realized my keys were lock in my car! So I called from the phone booth at the lake park and called my dad who just happened to be home. His first question was of course, "why are you out at the lake"??? I chose to tell the truth, and that must have helped. Especially since my dad also loved fishing and had his share of misdeeds as a boy himself. LOL He came and unlocked my car and nothing much was said other than did you catch anything?
