Will FINALLY Caught Some Fish!!

Today was the last chance we had for Will to catch some fish while Grandad was up here and we got lucky!  We went to the Aitch Recreation Area on Raystown Lake and started catching Perch right away.  Will and I even hooked a huge carp once but luckily he just bent the hook and got off! 

Will had fun reeling in the fish and enjoyed holding them too.  We kept several so we could bring them home for dinner since that's what Will talks about all the time - catching a fish and bringing it home for me to cook for dinner.  After Grandad cleaned all six of our fish we might have enough for all of us to have a bite of fish with our hamburgers tonight!

I was so glad that we caught something today but it was really surprising that even when Will wasn't catching any fish he was still having fun.  He must have inherited a love of fishing from Grandad!  I'm so thankful Grandad came and showed him such a good time this week. 

A guy from the Army Corps of Engineers came by while we were fishing and just
after Will had spotted a snake.  He asked Will to hold his hat for him
while he checked out the snake (which looked like a copperhead
but turned out to be a water snake, thankfully!)
