Fishing with grandpa

On Sunday grandpa took four of his grandchidren fishing. (It seemed prudent to limit the number to only four...) Adam and Daniel accompanied grandpa to give a hand with their little ones and to enjoy the fishing experience. It was the first time this summer that we have gotten the pontoon in the water and the day was just perfect for it.
Grandpa went shopping for some good fishing poles for little hands and some new life jackets as well. And away they went... 3 men and 4 children - ages 6, 6, 4 and 3.
No Moms. No Grandma. No one to worry.

The fishing was good too!

Preston caught fish.


Luke caught fish.



Timothy caught fish.


and Bro0klyn caught fish!

Everyone was happy!



Adam kept a close eye on his boys.


Looks like Brooklyn might have some action on that line!


Timothy reels another one in!


And, of course, the rewards of all that fresh air and fine fish is a little fish fry.
While I was out on a pizza run, Grandpa cleaned the fish and began to prepare them for frying.

Of course, it always helps to have a little female help.
All the children (and some adults) had some of the fish and they all liked fish!
What a fun day.
