Red Feather Lakes Day 2 - FISHING!!

The night before the kids' fishing derby. The boys have been practicing casting all day. They're getting one last practice in before bed!! This is going to be their very first time fishing!
Noah is all settled in and ready to go!

Papoo is helping Wyatt get ready.


Now we just wait...

He got his first bite! Here's video of him reeling it in:

Too bad the line broke and it got away : (

Still waiting...


Uncle Keith helps Noah.


Wyatt gets his second fish and reels it in:

This is too hilarious! He caught a fish skeleton!
He said, "Mommy, I don't like this."

He didn't end up catching anything else that morning.

But we went back that night to watch the fireworks. And while we waited for them they got a little more fishing in. Papoo was determined to have Wyatt catch a fish! This time he let him use his rod.

They got a bite but it got away again!



They got a second bite and Wyatt reeled it in:
His FIRST fish! We couldn't quite tell who was happier - Papoo or Wyatt!
