Opening Day fishing

Well, it wasn't a fish - but it was the biggest slime Little J reeled in! ICK!
Ahhhh - he's actually sharing! I think little O had more patience holding the rod than the boys did! She actually wanted to sit there and hold it!
Big A sits down (for a few minutes!) and WAAAAAIIIIITTTSSSS! Fishing is really hard for him - as he has to hold still!

We took the kids to Quincy for opening day of fishing. We were (un) fortunate to not have caught anything that would have required killing and bringing home! We got a late start, but the boys had a fun time casting and learning to finally bait their own hooks!

We only stayed a few hours, but it was MORE than enough for me!

The weather was in the 50's and was fairly nice... at least most the snow was melted! It looks like spring is finally here! As it was incredibly windy at our house all weekend!

I didn't realize fishing season had opened. Grandpa had a chance to go out in the Gulf to do some fishing but he chickened out - too many waves and bumps for him, ha. Anyhow, our friends went and caught a bunch, so there is going to be a fishfry soon.

It opened at the Quincy lakes March 1... it is earlier there than most places - I think everything else is April or May... you will be just in time to take the boys out fishing!
