Fishin' Kids

Every year the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife host a fishing event called Fishin' Kids. They stock the pond and put up nets so the fish stay close to the shore. Then for five dollars you can fish for 45 minutes or until you catch two fish per person. They give all the kids their own fishing pole and T-shirt.
The boys waiting for the whistle to blow signaling their start time.It wasn't long before we had a fish!
Matthew didn't want to touch the fish so this nice volunteer held it for him.
All three boys caught their two fish within ten minutes of the whistle blow.
After you catch the fish they will even gut it for you.

Can anyone guess what we ate for dinner? We had such a good time I'm sure we will be there next year.

That is my kind of fishing, and so fun for the kids to be able to catch fish so fast.
