Andy was wanting to go fishing. He is the only one young enough now days to go fishing without a license. The rest of us are required to have one. I got online this evening and purchased one for each of us. Ran me $55 to make this happen. So, we packed up some gear and headed to the lake on the hill here in Cedar City. Things were not all that fabulous. One of the rods we took was old and used to belong to one of my younger siblings I'm sure. It has sat around for years and no longer works. We tried. It sucked. We set it aside and I tried to get the boys all put together, it went in waves because as soon as I had one done I'd have to sit down and do the other one. That cycle just kept repeating itself and so I didn't personally get to enjoy much fishing at all and by fishing I mean casting and reeling. I don't usually catch fish.
Natty was doing a great job on her own and managed to catch a fish. It was a tiny fella but she caught it. Awesome. I had one or two little nibbles was all in the very limited time I had to fish. I also managed to fall into the lake. There I was with a rod in my hand and fixing to do a bit of fishing when I slipped on a rock, lost my balance and ended up in the lake. This provided some comic relief to the boys who had endured some rough fishing. Glad I could do my part.
Well, I am completely beat and a bit bruised as well. It is definitely time to retire for the evening.
