Fall Fishing

This year I didn't even get a license, I just sat back in a reclining camp chair and enjoyed the show.
Fall is Mike's all-time favorite time to go fishing.  This year was probably our second best year ever at Panguitch.  Everyone caught a fish, and Adelyn was the winner of the day.

This is Joey touting his very first fish.  I like to look at all the kids expressions.  I think the kids are still deciding what they think about fishing.

The very next week we hit the Nay's secret fishing hole, and hit the jackpot.  It was like playing the fishing game in primary where you throw the pole over a sheet and get a tug 10 seconds later with a prize.  They would throw a pole in and count to 30... and whip out a fish.
Mike got a little cocky and started using the Mickey Mouse pole to catch fish, and yes, even that worked.
Michael picked a little swampy place to fish, and that worked great for him.  Joey was probably throwing in his own pole without bait, and that probably worked too.
Adelyn has recently deemed herself a, "messy girl."  She helped Mike gut one of the fish at Panguitch and carried this fish to the stringer.  I believe this is why she also comes home from school so muddy.

Who wouldn't have loved the fish that day?

Yes, unfortunately it was bitten off by a furious fish. It all happened quite suddenly.
