Gone fishin'

Landon's first fishing experience!

He really enjoyed holding the fishing rod. He had one his size, however he didn't like it as much as the "real" fishing rod. He kept pointing at the water and saying "fish". Aunt Sheila caught a good size catfish. Papa Tommy caught a baby fish of some kind. Landon and I mostly had a few nibbles...however we did get a BIG catfish on the line. (He jumped up out of the water...we had witnesses!!) Landon was holding the rod when the floater went under. Unfortunately, Landon didn't understand that I had to take the rod to reel it in. Needless to say, if you look at the picture below....the fish got away! :-(

Oh, well....maybe next time!
