FIshing Derby 2010

Yet another fun year at the fishing derby! It never gets old. We always have fun but this year was awesome as soon as we put the lines in the water we were pulling them back in with fish in tow. It was hard to keep up with them, unhooking, re-baiting, casting, then pulling them back in. They were going crazy! We had fun trying to land them and had a lot that got away. Shermie was good at taking care of his own line. There was a three fish limit. He was the last to get all his fish but he also had a bunch get away.
It was a good thing we had Gramie, PopPop and Aunt Nana to help or we would not have been able to keep up with all the fish. Tuffer was the second to get his fish.
Matthew was third to get his three, but I think he caught and lost the most.
Nic was the first and he caught the Biggest fish. He was the fish runner for the rest of them and ran the fish to the weigh in station after his brothers and sister got their three.
Annalyn's first fishing derby and she ate it up. She was not afraid of the fish at all. She did not want to have help reeling them in (even though she needed it). She got every excited as she watched them come in. Another fisher is born. Annalyn was the fourth to get her fish.
Here is our bountiful catch. Annalyn was wiped out from all the fun.
What a fun time!
