Go Fish!



When I was at my Aunt and Uncle's cottage this summer I caught my first fish. It was a bass. I thought it was big but it was super small compared to other fish in the sea (lake). I was very excited though.

I also learned how to hold a fish. You have to grab its bottom lip and with your other hand grab under its tail. I let it go after I caught it. This is called Catch and Release. That's my favourite part.

I hope you liked my post. Until next time...go fish!
