A "memorial day" on Lilly

The dutiful father motoring out to the fishing grounds

Elliot hooks the first Sunny

Brodie soon follows

Elliot is on for two!

Brodie get's a second and learns the value of a long distance release

I got skunked but what I really got was two boys that really liking fishing

Pulling the boat out of the water, one of the bumbers buckled causing the boat to list

There was no wind and I went on really slow

and yet this happened

I went back in and re-positioned it and it was a little better

Fishing Lilly with the Boys

Annual check out of the Boat with my father and we took the boys fishing

We started out with bobbers and worms but got nothing

It was a beautiful day to be out

Brodie commanded the bow

We took off the bobbers and went to the bottom when Elliot got his first Bass!

While small, it didn't matter, because Elliot was besides himself that he finally caught a Bass!

Then Brodie hooked up

And caught a nice big Sunny!

Then Brodie caught a really big Perch!

Neither boy had ever seen a Perch before

Now we know how to fish when the water is cold

We trolled back and Elliot took a turn at the wheel

Brodie of course photo bombed his turn

Selfie!
