A "Sunny" Day

Did we wake up to sun yesterday morning?  Nope.  Overcast and cloudy.  The perfect weather for fishing.  And what did they catch?  Sunfish, affectionately called "Sunny's" by Marty (if one can associate affection with a fish).

And, here you see the first catch of the day. 

Now, don't get too excited about the size of that fish.  Believe me, it's all in the angle used by the photographer which will soon become obvious.  

But first, let me fill you in on the details:

First, Grandpa G puts the worm on the hook.

which is then casted into the water, while we wait.

The trick is to watch the bobber, which, as the name implies, bobs up and down when the fish takes a nibble.

It was obvious that we weren't the only ones keeping an eye on things. 

But the squad leader had them moving on in short time. 

It wasn't long before we got the first bite of the day!  

That is the same fish featured at the beginning of this blog.  Kind of tiny, but definitely exciting to the little guy!

Before we knew it, he and Grandpa G were BOTH catching fish! 

It's kind of like "where's Waldo?", isn't it? Could you find both fish?

And here you see the last catch of the day.

All in all, I think nine fish were caught between the two of them.  How's that for fun?

Personally, I think that it was the matching shirts that made the difference.

Would you like to see the garden?  Our tour guide gave us a detailed description of all of the plants that he planted.

And he even showed us his watering techniques!

That should be quite a harvest!

Our trip was short, but filled with a lot of fun.

Which is obvious from all of the smiles!  

Hope you enjoyed seeing them! I know we did!
