Gone Fishing

Since getting our princess fishing poles Memorial Day Weekend, we've gone fishing twice! Our neighborhood pond is well stocked.
Excited about her Sunfish!
Wanna touch the Large Mouth Bass?!

Fishing can be such a great learning experience in so many ways: patience, fine motor, gross motor! We went to a E. B. Garner Fishing Clinic at the Urban Ecology Center that covered casting & reeling, water safety, knot tying, baiting the hook, fish identification.


Washington Park Lagoon
Lydia caught a bluegill and the clinic hosts went to the trouble of filleting and cooking it up for them to taste their catch--so awesome of them to do that for the kids!
