Gone Fishing...

Mom brought Grandad up to spend some time with us this week.  Will has been asking me almost daily when he can go fishing with Grandad so he was SO excited that today was finally the day!  We packed a few things this morning and tried several fishing spots around the area.  At the first spot we saw one huge fish jump when we first arrived but we never got any bites.  We didn't have any luck all day, but we had enough fun to make up for it!

Will got his line tangled up.  Thankfully Grandad had everything
he needed to take the reel apart and fix it.  Grandad is
definitely a prepared fisherman!

After quite a bit of unsuccessful fishing Will got distracted by the tadpoles.

The next distraction was dancing in the mud.

We thought for sure we could catch a spot or perch at Whipple Dam.  Grandad found
a fish nesting near the bank and thought we could try for it.  He dangled
the bait in the fish's nest but the fish just picked up the worm and moved it out
of the nest!  I think we should have just used the net!

Will always wanted to fish right beside his Grandad (well actually great grandad!)
