Father's Day Fishing

Ron loves to fish but we rarely get to go. Tyler doesn't have the patience for it, and Danielle would rather wander around & look for critters. A softball dad told us about a pay lake he goes to sometimes. They only have catfish, but most of them are huge. We thought the kids might have better luck and therefore enjoy it a little more (which would allow Ron to enjoy it a little more), so part of Ron's Father's Day gift was to try this lake today.

Unfortunately, the fish weren't really biting. It's been a couple years since we've tried fishing with the kids. I don't know if it's because they are older now or because they knew Ron really wanted to fish (or because I packed snacks), but they stuck with it for the entire 6 hour period...even though neither of them caught a thing. I didn't catch anything either. Ron is the only one who had any luck, but I guess that's fair since this outing for was him. His catches were small compared to the lake's average size, but he still enjoyed it.  We had a really nice time hanging out together.
