Moms and Tots Fishing Play Date
With the newfound revelation of accessible fishing 5 minutes from my house and kids who thankfully LOVE fishing - I pretty much could sit out there all day every day.
This morning us Moms decided to take all the kids out fishing :)
Hanner's and Karah getting our gear ready.
Nater's fishing for his first time ever! Woop! He's got a rocking Diego rod.
Kai is taking a bit of a snack break :)
The girls much preferred the slippery silty slope to casting in the ridiculous wind. They got pretty grubby.
E trying to remove the hook my itty bitty Walleye swallowed.
Like we're talking swallowed - swallowed.
K - seriously. This hook is pretty much snagging on intestines!
The English One has never fished before (though she has caught minnows with a butterfly net!)
Glue Sticks (aka Kym) taught her to cast. English liked to keep the rod high. E advised her to bring it down a bit - become one with the rod.
Casting wasn't getting her any nibbles so she took over my jig set up. She had 2 bites, even brought one up to the bank but no fish yet! B and N behind her were pulling in fish left right and center!
3rd ones a charm! English pulled in a nice size Jack Fish!
Then English wanted a picture with said Jack Fish but was a little apprehensive to touch it.
I have not laughed this hard in months if not years. Best first fish reaction ever.
She did it. She held her ugly slimy Jack (though threatened me with a friend break up if I let go).
It was a fabulous morning of firsts.
First fish for English.
First time fishing for Treg kidlets.
First of many Moms and Tots Fishing Playdates.

There was much screaming and bolting and almost of peeing of pants.
