Winter Fishing

Carter has been begging to go fishing for several weeks now.  We keep telling him it's too cold and that the fish aren't very active right now (he doesn't have much patience yet and needs the fish to start biting pretty quickly).  Plus the boys got lots of cool fishing gear from GG, Papa Art, and Uncle Dale for Christmas so it's been killing him to not be able to go.

Last weekend we had a semi-warm day so we decided to just try it.  We got some worms and went to the Westhaven Pond where Carter can catch 20 fish in 30 minutes in the summer.

Even Rylan joined in few a bit.

Rylan was the first one to catch a fish!  And then he was done (didn't pick up the pole again).

Carter finally got one about 5 minutes later.

We lasted a little longer but it started clouding up and the wind picked up and we all just got too cold.  Luckily though both boys got one fish so we classified the outing as a success!
