Ethan's First Fish



On Saturday, June 13, E's enrichment fishing class from school met to go fishing together. Prior to then, they practiced casting on the playground, learned about fish, and explored a boat. He was so thrilled to catch his first fish! He wasn't so sure about holding this rainbow trout, but I was able to convince him to do it long enough to snap a few photos to post on the blog. He isn't sure if he wants to eat it so it is in the freezer with a couple K caught months ago. We'll see if mom and/or dad actually ever fry it up.

Summer has been pretty busy so there is more to share, but not more time to share it. I'll try to be a little more consistent with posting to get caught up!

Who-ho! What a brave boy. I am with him on feeling a little squirmy on the whole touching the fish. I bet it would make a great dinner though.

Way to go E. Nice he let you take his picture.

Nice Job E! I don't know if I would want to hold the fish either. Hope you are enjoying summer. It is suppose to be a time to slow down but it seems like all the days are still so full!

Congrats on the fish E! No way would anyone get me to hold the fish. I completely get what you mean by lots to share but no time to share. We have been keeping ourselves busy also.
