So..you are probably wondering what do you DO in your spare time since...well... I may have mentioned that the area we are workcamping is slightly...ahem.... less than a booming metropolitan area.
This cute little state park has loads of hiking and fishing to include a fish hatchery and several different playgrounds. It truly is a fisherman's paradise! Too bad we don't consider ourselves avid fishermen. ..huh?
So this past Saturday was a free kids fishing day here at the state park so.... after we finished up at the cafe we headed across the street poles in tow and hung out to see if we could score some rainbow trout. Unfortunately, ad novice trout fishermen not one kid caught a single fish but it sure was pretty.
I am certain our ocean lures and bass fishing lures were not in our favor either. But it's so pretty by the river it was just good to kick back and relax for a few hours after work and enjoy our time with the kidlets. 3 out of 4 of the younger kids won brand new fishing poles from the folks who sponsored the kids fishing day.
Looks like that was a lucky day for you! And you must be really a skilled at fishing to catch those huge Northern pike fishes. I agree that it would certainly be fun to see them chase the lure under water. I hope you’ll be able to have a camera for that soon. I'm looking forward to read more about your fishing journeys. Thanks for sharing with us, Nakhoda! :)
