Oh Yeah - Look at My Fish!

We visited Uncle Tom yesterday at his fishing cabin. Rebekah hit the mother load with 5 different (we think different, however they all looked very similar) 2 to 3 inch fish. Jonathan had nothing even close to a nibble the entire time, despite his best efforts to cross lines with his sister and trying to cast his hook within inches of where Rebekah had landed it. We tried to explain that he needed to leave it still for a while so the fish could find it and not be scared, I think he had Jimmy Houston cast and reel technique going all day! Anyhow, we pulled the boat back to the dock at sunset and after getting most items off the boat, Uncle Tom suggested that the kids drop their lines of the front of the dock. No more than seconds after Jonathan dropped his line, this whopper (in Jon's book) snatched and ran. He cried, "I've got a fish!" and proceeded to pull it in. The look on his face describes exactly how he felt and what he said over and over, "Oh Yeah - I caught a fi-ish!" Way to go Rebekah and Jonathan, I'm very proud of both of you and your new-found fishing prowess.
