Gone Fishin'



















Robert's travels through the Land of Enchantment continued Wednesday with a trip to Shady Lakes. The point of the trip was to try out his Lightning McQueen fishing rod, so Grandpa Jack enlisted the help of Great Grandpa Eddie as the Shivers are not known for their fishing prowess. After a few short casts Robert was soon hitting the middle of the lake, but he initially was not the best at "setting the hook." I had no idea what setting the hook is, but it is when you pull up on your rod to grab the fish. The first few got away but soon Robert got the hang of it and grabbed three trout in short order, one of which is 12 inches!
