Finally fishing

Yesterday morning after breakfast we headed to the marina so Joseph could go fishing. I'm embarrassed to say it was our first time going to the marina but won't make that mistake again. We had such a fun time!

Joseph had done some fishing earlier this summer with Elliot, and we were all impressed that he knew how to cast so well. Maddie just took everything in and waited to take a turn. 

Joseph "let" her carry his tackle box around, which made her happy. She is his biggest fan, cheering "yay jojo, good fishin'!" Every time he cast. 

Eventually papa helped Maddie takes turn, which didn't last long. 

So, we didn't catch anything. Turns out the fish don't care whether you have a hook or not... Which we didn't for the first half of fishing as I hadn't bought any yet. Oops. Thankfully a nice neighbor gave us one, but it didn't change the outcome. 

We will just have to wait for a story about catching a Riss lake fish for another time (hopefully when I have backup again!)
