One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish

Carter had his first fishing experience last Saturday. We got up bright and early and made it on post by 6:30am to meet the bus and have breakfast with the group. Since Carter was too little to ride the bus I had to drive him to the lake. We got there and each family (group) had there own boat with a fisherman ready to help them. Right away I told the guy that I didn't much about fishing (not entirely a lie) so he wouldn't expect much from me, which turned out to be good since Carter seemed to REALLY like the edge of the boat! I spent most of the time holding on to his life jacket so he could feel the water. I told the guy that we definately werent going for quality but rather quantity in the hopes of keeping Carter occupied. Total we ended up catching about 15 fish. All in all Carter had a great time even though we were one of the first boats back to shore! After a pizza lunch and raffle prizes we headed home around 3pm. Carter got his own fishing pole, tackle box full of lures, two big bags of different lures, a t-shirt, 2 caps, and two big bags full of goodies. It was a long but fun day and Carter took a 3 hour nap so I got some rest too!
