Today Paul and I decided to take the kids to go fishing for the first time. Paul had gone once and I had gone once but by no means were we experts. Hans and Liesl had never gone and they had a blast. There is this Trout farm in Payson were you can go and they provide you with everything you need to go fishing. The only thing you purchase is the fish you catch per pound. We got there and just got right in fishing. Hans immediatly caught the first fish. Liesl also was quick to learn how to hold the rod. She definatly enjoyed reeling in the line. I had a try at it, but was not sucessful in getting a fish until the very end. What an experience we had. Hans and Liesl got the biggest fish of the seven we caught. Hans got a 2 1/2 pounder which was the biggest. After catching the fish, the young girl who is the daughter of the owner, filleted and gutted the fish for us. That was an interesting process, but very educational. I am so glad that we did this today. This is an experience that my children and I will never forget. Even though we are not experts at fishing, we all had a blast, my children learned a lot about fish, and most importantly we spent time as a family.
