Gone Fishin'

For Bill's birthday, Bill, Nolan, and I went to Cabela's to buy a new reel for his fishing pole.  Nolan loved the fish at Cabela's!  He kept walking up to the tanks and trying to say fish.  Bill wanted to buy Nolan his first fishing pole.  Of course, I said Nolan had to have a life vest if he was going to be fishing.  Bill and Nolan decided on a Spiderman fishing pole and it lights up!!  I had to search the store high and low to find a life vest small enough for Nolan, but Cabela's had one.  I tried it on Nolan and he thought it was pretty cool.

Not a fan of the Davey Crocket hat

Friday we were able to test out Bill's new reel and Nolan's new pole.  We kept the rubber fish on the end instead of a hook for Poot;  he thought he was cool though.  Bill caught a 2lb bass right off the bat.  The new reel was magic! ;)  Nolan was fascinated by the fish.  He kept petting it and trying to stick his hand down the fish's throat.

What's in there dada?

Nolan liked sitting in his chair and reeling the line back in.  Nana had to help cast the line for him though.  After awhile, Nolan/Nana caught the fish on a rock and Bill had to brave the chilly water to untangle the line.

Nice legs daddy!!

We had a great time fishing!  Nolan would rather ride on the Kubota, but I'm sure one day he will enjoy fishing with Bill.
